Siheyuan: Taking over the steel mill

Chapter 52: The Power is Quite Amazing

"No, no, it's all thanks to the concerted efforts of leaders and comrades at all levels. I'm just doing my job." Looking at the leader's eyes, I couldn't help but wipe away the cold sweat again.

Although the other party seemed kind and gentle, Su Chen felt a lot of pressure. The medals on the military uniform were particularly conspicuous, reminding him that this was a veteran and famous military leader, but he could not recognize his exact identity for a while.

If it weren't for the glittering medals and collar badges, he might have mistaken him for a high-ranking civilian. However, even though he tried hard to be approachable, his true demeanor revealed inadvertently was chilling and hard to misjudge.

Fortunately, the military leader was not only amiable but also decisive, and was not interested in complicated and useless formalism. When he saw Su Chen coming out, he immediately said:

"Is Director Su free at this moment? Can you accompany us to tour your factory?"

Su Chen readily accepted this, because this leader was obviously a practical person. He led the way and walked in front, followed by the leaders. The group moved between the factory buildings.

As they gradually approached the factory, the news spread quickly. In an instant, the entire steel mill was informed of the visitor's arrival. But Su Chen felt that the steel mill was not worth visiting. At present, the production process of gas cylinders has been stabilized, and the spiral wire inside the tap water pipe is not a very complicated scientific and technological problem.

After considering these factors, he decided to take a perfunctory attitude. He believed that a military-focused government official might not care about or understand the technical details of civilian products. With a casual attitude, he led the leadership team to the gas cylinder production workshop.

This location is not remote. It is the peak time for commuting. Workers are shuttling around and the atmosphere is very lively. The machines on the assembly line are busy and the workers are sweating. It is a scene of enthusiastic labor. Since Suchen introduced the reward system, the workers work consciously without supervision and everyone is fully committed to their work.

Even those who used to be lazy are working hard, hoping to increase their output. In addition to the basic salary, they can also get piecework wages based on the principle of more work, more pay. Who doesn't want to live a better life?

The leaders, accompanied by many people, arrived at the production line where the gas cylinders were stored. Although the workers were working hard, they still couldn't help but be curious.

After all, since the steel mill's performance declined, the number of high-level visits has decreased. The last time there were such a large number of visitors was when the diplomats from Camel Country visited. Seeing a great and handsome man coming to inspect, everyone would naturally stop and watch.

There were many knowledgeable people among the workers, and they resumed their work after realizing that the visitor was a military leader.

Su Chen admired the workers' performance very much. Only such diligent work could impress others.

Afterwards, Su Chen led a group of leaders to the production line, pointed to the gas tanks being assembled, and said, "These gas tanks look very common, nothing special."

Just as Su Chen said, these gas tanks are not much different from other gas tanks in appearance. With the safety equipment installed, they can be used as ordinary gas equipment. If you don't know it in advance, you will never realize that this is a flammable and ** risky product.

The military leader nodded in approval, and then carefully looked at the gas cylinders in production. In fact, when reviewing the relevant reports, he had already come across the report on "Household canned containers with explosive properties designed and manufactured by Su Chen". At that time, the report on this project was reviewed layer by layer and finally placed on his desk.

Seeing these seemingly ordinary products but hiding deadly potential, military leaders nodded in approval.

However, when the report was made, the products mentioned were only briefly summarized in terms of their features, without any detailed description of their ultimate power.

As a result, military leaders failed to perceive the greater mysteries hidden in the product.

When the military commander finished inspecting these, Su Chen was about to take them to the next production area.

At this time, a tall and handsome soldier holding a yellow cowhide document bag walked quickly into the scene, quickly approached the leader, handed the yellow cowhide folder in his hand to his boss, and then whispered a few words.

The leader's expression suddenly became serious, and his smile was replaced by a serious expression. As the smile disappeared from his face, the whole scene became solemn.

Everyone around fell silent and waited with bated breath for the next instruction. Even Su Chen, who was accompanying the inspection, was nervously observing the situation. The leaders of the Ministry of Industry were even more uneasy, worried about what worries were in their minds.

The military leader frowned and looked down at the document in his hand. After reading just one or two lines, his face darkened. An invisible sense of oppression seemed to spread in this factory.

Su Chen felt this fierce momentum, but fortunately, he had strong physical fitness and psychological stress resistance, so he did not behave too badly. The others around him could not help but take a few steps back because of the change in the leader's aura.

A person who has been tempered by the battlefield can make the timid flee without fighting just by his aura. Several workers who tried to watch quietly approached and pretended to do something to hide their tracks. However, under the awe of the military leader, they were immediately frightened and their hands and feet became weak. The parts in their hands fell to the ground, making a harsh sound, which immediately attracted the attention of others.

Su Chen looked up and saw several young workers with guilty looks on their faces. He couldn't help but laugh. He gestured to them to leave quickly. "You are really young and don't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is." Su Chen shook his head secretly.

Seeing this, the workers hurriedly picked up the parts and returned to their original positions.

The document that shocked the military leaders was actually quite concise. The rough brown paper bag contained a document involving top military secrets.

The relevant information will be released to the public soon, but it will not be as detailed as the current document. The document records the military friction between Camel Country and several neighboring countries not long ago.

Camel Country, located in a strategic location, often faces various problems, and disputes with other countries follow one after another. If Camel Country encounters military conflict again, it is an extremely common thing and will not be submitted to the military high-level for review.

However, this time, the nature of the conflict has changed dramatically. In the past, although Camel Country had sufficient funds, it always lost ground in confrontations with neighboring countries due to its lack of advanced equipment.

Even when those countries deployed significantly fewer soldiers than Camel Country, they were still able to easily win. But this time the situation completely changed. Camel Country used its newly developed combat equipment, launched a fierce offensive, and quickly won the victory.

When the military leader saw this part of the description, his face turned pale: It should be noted that the Camel Country is suffering from the strict control and sanctions of the "Eagle Sauce" - a powerful opponent or powerful country. How could it be possible to possess such cutting-edge weapons?

This doubt reminded the military of the earlier news that Camel Country had purchased a large number of gas cylinders from the steel plant, but they had no idea how these cylinders would be used.

Therefore, after consulting the detailed description and the pictures, ** gradually became clear. The neatly arranged gas tanks and the traces left by the baptism of fire were clearly revealed in front of the military leaders, making them take a deep breath involuntarily.

After careful comparison, it was confirmed that this was indeed a product produced by the same factory. So this is the ordinary civilian can that Su Chen mentioned! ? It seems that its power is probably no less than some heavy weapons!

Military leaders continued to focus on the type of bullet holes depicted in the documents.

According to the markings, the bullet hole was actually over five meters wide.

This does not include the churning of the earth caused by external forces. Obviously, the power of this force is quite amazing.

Looking at the appearance of the crater, the military leaders couldn't help but get excited, and even wanted to purchase a few gas cylinders and give them to the subordinate troops for trial use.

However, the military leader did not reveal his thoughts, but put the documents back into the brown paper bag and handed it to the entourage next to him.

"Sorry, these are just some small things in the army. Let's continue our tour." He said to Su Chen.

Although the military leader did not say it explicitly, his eager gaze when he looked at the gas tank showed that he had noticed something. But since he was unwilling to say more, Su Chen was naturally willing to keep this vague state.

"Please come this way. I will show you the production line of the water pipes."

Considering the previous situation with the gas tank, the water pipes on this visit also made the military leaders suspicious; although this young man could produce some strange products, his words were always unpredictable, which caused the military leader to follow him with caution during the visit.

Only after these guests left the exhibition area did the people on the production line breathe a sigh of relief.

"This leader looks really intimidating."

"He's even more unnerving than my grandfather was when he returned from the military."

"But I think that kind of guy is pretty cool. He looks like the old man selling cabbages we see in the vegetable market, and he's approachable."

"Don't even think about it. Judging from the look in his eyes, I'm sure he's personally dealt with matters involving at least a dozen people." The workers were discussing the identity of this sudden visitor.

Despite this, the workers continued to work and the parts were assembled quickly. Although they were full of curiosity, no one dared to follow Su Chen and his party to take a look. With the military ** in place, the workers did not dare to act rashly. Once they were regarded as enemies or special circumstances, they would have to spend the night in the detention center. Therefore, they could only chat in private.

In this way, Su Chen continued to lead this group of people into the area of ​​the tap water pipe production line for investigation.

This place is relatively secluded. If you enter the factory from the main gate, you have to go around most of the workshop to reach your destination.

The previous factory building was dedicated to the production of water pipes, so Suchen retained the original settings and only added some production lines to accommodate the needs of expanding production. Since the noise from the water pipe production process far exceeds that required for the production of gas cylinders, Suchen decided to set up this production line in this more remote location to reduce interference.

When accompanying the military ** to this place, the other party was also trying to get more information by chatting with them.

"Director Su was very successful at a young age and was able to quickly revitalize this steel mill. What advanced ideas can you share with other state-owned enterprises?"

In fact, it was not that the military leaders were trying to take advantage of Director Su to gain experience in order to save trouble. In this era, it was normal for colleagues to share and learn from each other.

After hearing this, Su Chen smiled and said a few perfunctory words to get away with it.

He doesn't have time to go to other factories to give guidance. He not only has to worry about the steel mill, but also the Changhong Tractor Factory. He is so busy that he can't do anything, not to mention going to other factories. However, if those factories are willing to let him acquire them, it is not impossible.

Su Chen would not say this. After all, if those state-owned factories were not facing closure, they probably would not consider selling their businesses.

He has already planned that when the business expands more widely and the demand is greater in the future, he can find a few more high-quality state-owned factories to acquire. In this way, a complete closed loop can be formed in the industrial chain, and the sales scale will naturally increase.

After all, this plan is a business blueprint aimed at the future. The most urgent task is to expand the sales of existing products and have sufficient cash flow. Otherwise, how can we talk about the future?
