Siheyuan: Taking over the steel mill

As soon as they entered the house, Yang Xue was held in Su Chen's arms and walked towards the bedroom.

Yang Xue was amused by Su Chen's action. She waved her fist and punched him, scolding him: "You are such a person. You just came home and you were thinking about those ** affairs."

In response, Su Chen smiled and defended himself by saying, "Can I still be considered a normal man if I don't have such thoughts when I see my wife?" After that, he put Yang Xue on the bed in the bedroom.

She said angrily, "You are too rude. How can you just throw someone on the bed?" Su Chen smiled and leaned over, saying gently, "I'm sorry, where does it hurt? Let me see." After that, the two figures intertwined together.

The next morning, when Su Chen just arrived at the steel rolling mill, Assistant Zhang came to him hurriedly.

Assistant Zhang shouted to Su Chen with excitement on his face: "Director, there is new progress in the engine project!" Upon hearing this, Su Chen's eyes suddenly lit up and he quickened his pace forward.

He asked anxiously, "How is the situation? Our engine research and development has finally produced some results."

Assistant Zhang replied: "According to the report from the technical staff, a breakthrough has indeed been made, so they asked you to go over and take a look."

Su Chen smiled with joy on his face: "This is really long-awaited news." Soon, he arrived at the engine research and development workshop.

After entering the workshop, Su Chen saw a familiar scene: a group of technicians were discussing the newly produced engine samples. The previous samples had been put aside and were considered unqualified products. However, this time, everyone walked around the new engine for several times, but could not find any problems.

One of the technicians said with emotion: "This time the engine has fully met the design standards." Another added: "Finally it succeeded! All the test data passed, and our goal was finally achieved!"

Seeing Su Chen approaching, the technician immediately stepped forward to report: "Reporting to the factory director, the inspection of all items has been completed, and the engine is ready for further practical application testing."

The excitement on the technicians' faces has not faded yet. They have spent a lot of time on this engine, tested it countless times, experienced countless failures and tried again, and only now have they produced a qualified prototype.

The hard work of these technicians finally paid off. Their long-term overtime work was not in vain. They couldn't wait to tell Su Chen the good news.

Hearing all this, Su Chen was in a good mood and immediately walked up to take a closer look at the new engine. At first glance, the appearance was already very mature and consistent with the design blueprint, which made him very happy.

He once worried that the engine design was too complex for the technical team in the factory to overcome certain key problems. However, he was relieved that these technicians relied on their firm determination to successfully overcome the challenges in engine design.

"Very well done," Suchen praised.

Chief Engineer Jiang Jiefang said: "Now, Director, you have to continue to provide us with research funds. We want to integrate this engine into the MiG-23bis fighter jets that we imported from abroad."

After listening to Jiang Jiefang's explanation, Su Chen asked in confusion: "Do you have a thorough understanding of the performance of this engine?"

Jiang Jiefang nodded and said, "No problem. Now we just need to thoroughly digest the fighter jet research and development drawings."

Hearing this, Su Chen was delighted.

He said, "Okay, let me know if you need any support. So the next step is to replace the engines of the MiG-23bis, right?"

Jiang Jiefang shook his head and replied, "We plan to integrate the engine with the MiG-23bis and develop a new model of aircraft. After all, direct imitation is too conspicuous."

The design drawings of the bear fighter planes brought by Su Chen clearly showed that they were the technological achievements of the United States. Therefore, they could not manufacture them directly according to the drawings as before, but had to design a new appearance by themselves. Su Chen nodded in understanding of the modification plan based on the characteristics of the MiG-23bis.

As a time traveler, Su Chen knew that the future domestically produced J-15 would be redesigned and manufactured based on the MiG series. Therefore, the suggestion made by the technicians was equivalent to starting the development process of the J-15 early.

So, Su Chen immediately agreed and generously approved the proposal.

He said: "No problem, just tell me how much money you need. If it's not enough, I can go to the bank for a loan." This promise was both firm and natural.

After all, this is to develop advanced fighter jets for the country. If the bank is unwilling to approve the project, the top management will force the bank to allocate funds. Therefore, Su Chen is not worried about the funding issue at all.

What's more, he has had a lot of foreign exchange income recently and has sufficient funds on hand.

At present, he has tried his best to use every penny in the factory, but a lot of funds are still idle.

The steel mill's funds had not yet found a suitable use, so when the technician mentioned the required expenses, Su Chen did not hesitate.

After all, it is useless to keep money in an account. Only when it is circulated can more wealth be created. Su Chen's decisiveness delighted the technicians. Considering that the factory is carrying out multiple projects at the same time, there is indeed some idle funds available, which also excited them.

Technology research and development itself is a money-burning job. Only when Suchen is willing to invest money can those ideas on paper be transformed into actual products. In addition, according to calculations, with the support of the new engine, the performance of the self-produced MiG-23bis is expected to surpass the original model.

Looking at the excited expressions of the technicians, Su Chen said, "Thank you for your hard work. Please work harder during this period. The factory's new products all depend on your efforts."

Technology research and development not only brings them challenges and fun, but also brings considerable benefits. In addition, they are also very clear that according to the existing rules and regulations, the products they develop and produce can also create value for themselves.

They hope to produce more equipment that can be put into use immediately because they can get a lot of subsidies. Seeing that Su Chen agreed to invest funds and technical support, the technical backbones continued to overcome the difficulties in the design drawings.

As the best technical personnel in the city, they are full of fighting spirit when faced with technical information from the Russians.

Since the country's industrial system relies heavily on experts sent by the Russians, the two sides have many similarities in drawing annotations, and many technical backbones can read Russian, so it is not difficult for them to interpret the design drawings.

There are many similarities in principles and technologies, so the understanding and application of these drawings are actually faster than the engine blueprint provided by Su Chen.

They have enough confidence in their research and believe that as long as they receive sufficient financial support, they will be able to successfully manufacture the fighter jet.

This group of technical backbones all know that the design drawings they are currently working on will eventually produce a groundbreaking new fighter aircraft.

Based on the experience accumulated in the ** factory, the blueprint provided by Su Chen to them is more advanced. Therefore, in this job, everyone has a passion and drive to promote the progress of the times.

Seeing that the technical backbones were fully focused on scientific research, Su Chen did not disturb them any further.

He hoped that this group of technical elites could complete the design of the new fighter jet as soon as possible to help him gain more benefits.

Su Chen asked Assistant Zhang to find a way to solve the funding needs of the technical staff, which suddenly reminded him of another big drama that was about to be staged in this era. If the technical team had not mentioned the funding issue, he would not have thought of this for the time being.

According to the information he knew, "Foot Basin Chicken" would soon encounter an economic disaster.

During the economic recovery after World War II, with the help of the United States, China quickly recovered from a nearly destitute economy and became a global economic power. However, receiving this help also meant losing some aspects of its independence, and China's economy has since been constrained by other countries.

At the same time, the economic development of "Eagle Sauce" has also attracted many investors to target the capital market of "Foot Basin Chicken", especially when "Foot Basin Chicken" rose rapidly, a large amount of hot money poured into its stock market, causing considerable fluctuations. The rapid development of "Foot Basin Chicken" and the jealous effect it caused attracted many investors to enter the market for a round of speculation at a loss.

For Su Chen in the past, such a capital competition was far beyond his personal ability to participate, but with sufficient start-up funds, Su Chen also hoped to seize the opportunity to get a piece of the pie.

Su Chen then called Assistant Zhang, who was busy allocating factory funds to support the engine development project. Assistant Zhang came over with a puzzled look on his face, "Mr. Su Chen, what is the purpose of setting up a financial institution? Factory funds do not need such complicated management for the time being?"

Su Chen told him: "I now need to set up a new financial institution." But in fact, his plan went far beyond the other party's conventional understanding of financial operations.

The funds in.

Usually, diversified domestic groups will set up a financial company specifically to manage the cash flow of other companies under their umbrella.

However, in Assistant Zhang's impression, this type of company is often difficult to unify due to the complexity of its internal business... Moreover, the concept of financial companies has only emerged in the past two or three years, and he himself is not very familiar with it.

If he had not recently taken a special trip to study company management knowledge in order to better coordinate the work of the factory, he would have had no idea of ​​the significance behind Su Chen's proposal to set up a financial company.

Su Chen said: "Once the financial company is established, we will carry out stock market operations of airdropping chicken."

This puzzled Assistant Zhang: "The stock market for chicken feet is very hot right now. Short selling at this time is equivalent to losing money."

In this era, China was at the peak of its economic bubble and no one believed that its stock market would fall.

After all, its market has continued its upward trend, and as one of the most generous consumers in the world, it is warmly welcomed by people everywhere to travel and spend.
