Siheyuan: Me! He Yuzhu defies fate and changes destiny

Mastering so many technologies is not just bragging. You can tell the truth from the files. Since He Yuzhu said so, Director Gu believed it:

"No problem. These are not difficult for our 403 Institute."

He Yuzhu replied: "Thank you very much, Director Gu!" Then he asked:

"Director, what should I study first?" He Yuzhu responded:

"As the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. I will first improve the functions of basic machine tools, such as lathes, milling machines, grinders, planers and drilling machines. After these are completed, I will consider what to do next."

Director Gu was very surprised after hearing what He Yuzhu said. Even though he was not proficient in technology, he knew a little about the basics of mechanics.

If we can produce these devices independently, the country will not need to rely on imports, which is of great significance to the country. These projects have actually been underway for some time.

Although the information was complete, the project was not successful due to material problems. If he knew Director Gu's idea, he would definitely sneer at it; after all, most of the machine tools now are second-hand goods from other countries, and even if they are copied, they are outdated technology. However, He Yuzhu said nothing more and decided to prove his ability himself!

As a newcomer, he still had many secrets to learn, especially the details of machine tool development, which he could not participate in for the time being. However, since he had been assigned to the seventh department,

Director Gu was still willing to give him a chance: "Since you want this, I support you. Come, go and complete the entry procedures first! Then I'll show you your future workplace."

The original plan was to give He Yuzhu an office to draw drawings and write reports. Gradually, we would find opportunities for him to integrate into the research team. However, since he was willing to operate on his own,

Then the previous plan would be useless. There happened to be a large warehouse that was temporarily unused, which was perfect for placing these machines and equipment. It was spacious and no one wanted it!

Thinking of this, Gu Zhiqiu took He Yuzhu to the personnel department to complete the entry procedures, and then told him:

"Sections One and Six have their offices there. You are a member of Section Seven. Your office is not there. Don't go there if you have nothing to do. To avoid being misunderstood, you also know that this is a highly confidential place. Everyone is divided into zones according to the confidentiality level. You, who have just arrived, are at the lowest confidentiality level, so you cannot go to other areas at will."

Zhang Zhicheng nodded. If his confidentiality level was high enough, Gu Zhiqiu would have told him that the country was actually conducting relevant research.

Because he did not have confidentiality rights, he had no way of knowing this information. Gu Zhiqiu also learned that as long as Zhang Zhicheng could achieve a technological breakthrough, his recommendation would be considered a credit, and this method did not violate relevant regulations.

After helping Zhang Zhicheng complete the entry formalities, Gu Zhiqiu led him to a large warehouse and said to him:

“We originally prepared an office space for you, but since you need to conduct experiments yourself, that space is too small, so we allocated this warehouse and several adjacent rooms to you.

These adjacent rooms can be used for office and rest, and the warehouse can be used for experimental work. Since it is a mechanical manufacturing and processing equipment, more space is required, so it is arranged there. Don't worry, we will immediately deploy personnel to renovate and arrange it. It is estimated that it will be completed in about three days, including your office area.

Are you satisfied with this arrangement?" Zhang Zhicheng responded:

"That's perfect, but could you please help me set up my office area first? That way I can come up with a preliminary idea as soon as possible in the coming days."

After hearing this, Gu Zhiqiu replied: "Absolutely! You will be able to get the prepared office key in about an hour. The staff are already sorting it out."

In response, Zhang Zhicheng expressed his gratitude: "Thank you so much, Director Gu!"

Gu Zhiqiu smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, let's talk about salary and benefits. For a level 5 engineer, the salary outside is 178 yuan and 5 cents per month. However, ours is different from the outside world, and the overall level is higher than the general standard.

You receive the salary of a Level 5 engineer, but you also receive some additional allowances, which adds up to 207 yuan per month, which is actually equivalent to the salary of a Level 4 engineer. However, you still maintain your Level 5 status.

In addition, all additional coupons were distributed equally. The original rations of individuals remained theirs. In addition, they could receive an additional 50 catties of fine grain coupons each month, because intellectual labor required adequate nutrition. At the same time, there were also 30 catties of meat coupons each month, as well as fruit and vegetable, tobacco and alcohol, and light industrial coupons according to the prescribed quotas.

Of course, if you achieve something, you can get more rewards, the details of which will be discussed later. After explaining all these benefits, there are still some key points that must be followed that need to be emphasized.

This is the text of the confidentiality policy. Please read each item carefully.

Never touch any prohibition, once violated the consequences will be disastrous, so please pay attention to this point. In addition, it is necessary to emphasize the criticality of this place, you should also understand that it is very important to us.

This means that in principle, relatives are not allowed to visit. Of course, the institute has installed communication facilities, and if you encounter a family matter that really needs to be resolved immediately, you can call me. But if it is not an urgent matter, please try not to use this method of communication.

I hope you can inform your family members of these matters in a timely manner.”

"I understand." He Yuzhu nodded.

Director Gu asked: "Mr. He, is there anything else you are not clear about?"

"Regarding the issue of dining. Because this is a confidential institution, each department has its own private canteen to prevent leaks between personnel in different departments. As for your department, you are the only one at the moment. It is impossible to open a new canteen specifically for you. There are two solutions for your reference: one is to prepare a stove for you and you cook by yourself, and the raw materials will be supplied by us; the other is that you can go home to eat, because this is a personal project, if there is a leak, it will be regarded as a personal behavior."

Hearing about this arrangement, He Yuzhu disagreed: "Director, during the research phase, the information may only be in my hands, but once the research and development is successful and made public..."

Director Gu understood He Yuzhu's concerns and immediately said, "You don't have to worry about this. After the results are owned by the state, the drawings, technology and specific parameters are no longer your responsibility. If it is your problem, the information will not be handed over."

He Yuzhu nodded in agreement with this explanation: "I see, then I have no objection!"

The director then said, "Okay, since you have no other questions, please read the confidentiality regulations first. I will confirm that your office is ready and you can use it when everything is ready."

He Yuzhu agreed, "Okay."

Then he picked up the confidentiality manual and read it carefully. When he finished reading, Director Gu came in and said:

"I'll read it later. Now let's go see your office. If you need anything, feel free to let me know!"

After that, he led him to the new location of the seventh research room. Before entering the door, the director pointed to the workbench inside and said:

"This is your new workplace. You can use it for drawing and designing. I have clearly marked the locations of your drinks and confidential documents. Don't worry about safety. Currently, only you have the right to enter this place. If you need any supplies, you can always come to the main office building to find me. When I am not here, you can ask others for help. They will report to you if necessary."

He added: "Just give me a list of what you need and I'll try to meet your needs as quickly as possible!"

After hearing this, He Yuzhu responded: "Okay, I'll make a list right away!"

He then spent about half an hour writing down the list of materials he needed so that he could use better quality materials when he developed a new lathe. The options currently available on the market did not meet his requirements, so this list became the key to completing the task.

There is a lot of content about chemistry and biology experiments here, so this is a good opportunity to verify some of my previous ideas.

After seeing these contents, Director Gu asked curiously, "Are you also good at chemistry and biology?"

He Yuzhu nodded: "I learned a little in school, and this time I want to put some of my previous ideas into practice!" Hearing this, Director Gu said happily: "Great! No problem, I will try my best to prepare what you need. I will deal with these things first, and if there is anything missing, tell me then."

Director Gu was not surprised by what He Yuzhu wanted, because the other departments needed more and more advanced things.

Due to He Yuzhu's limited authority, he didn't know that he could get more advanced equipment. At present, these are just basic items. He Yuzhu has never participated in any confidential projects, so he thought this is the current level of the country.

In his mind, the country was in a state of disrepair and resources were scarce.

However, what he didn't know was that in many places, many people were silently contributing their strength, some even pretending to be dead or hiding their identities, fighting for the progress of the motherland and the nation.

Of course, He Yuzhu was still unaware of this at the time, because he was busy drawing the design drawings of the basic machine tool.

Old machine tools are backward in technology, low in precision, difficult to maintain, and have non-interchangeable parts. What’s more troublesome is that they come from different countries and have different operating systems.

At noon, He Yuzhu looked at the time, packed up his belongings, put them in the safe, and left Section 7. After all, he was the only one in the department and didn't have to report his whereabouts to anyone.

After leaving the factory, he rode his bike home.

He Yuzhu realized that his entire morning work was under surveillance. As a member of a confidential unit, although the country has high hopes for him, he will still remain vigilant about his behavior.

After he left, the surveillance disappeared. He Yuzhu didn't mind it too much, as he thought he would gain more trust when the results were presented.

Director Gu nodded his approval when he saw He Yuzhu leaving. Even if there was a problem, it would not be necessary to take action as soon as the contact was made. However, Director Gu still assigned his subordinates to prepare according to He Yuzhu's needs.

He Yuzhu picked up He Yushui and returned home together. When he entered the house, he saw Yang Xiaodi coming back. He seemed very happy and asked with concern:

"Dear, how do you feel about your first day on the job?" He Yuzhu was stunned: "Didn't you say you would report for work tomorrow? Why are you here today?" Yang Xiaodi shook her head and said:

"I didn't go there. I just went to see my mom. I will start work tomorrow, and I just went to see my mom in advance."

He Yuzhu nodded and agreed: "Let's talk about it after we go in."

After they went home, Yang Xiaodi curiously asked He Yuzhu about his work. He Yuzhu said, "It was my first day at work, and I didn't feel anything special. Besides, it was a confidential unit, so I couldn't say much. In the future, if there is nothing special at home, try not to talk about work, especially where I work.

You know, if you know too much, it may not be safe for the future. In addition, martial arts practice cannot be interrupted!"
