When will I have a long tassel?

Danzhang City, the capital of Mingxi Province.

On the campus of Mingxi University of Technology, colorful flags are flying, and red banners are hung on the main roads, with slogans such as "Welcome the leaders of the Ministry of Science and Technology to visit and provide guidance" and "I wish the Danrui 03 Machine Tool Appraisal Conference a complete success." . All the heads and heads of Mingli Engineering put on brand new suits and took their places to welcome the guests who came from the capital and all over the country to attend the appraisal meeting.

Three cars filed into the gate of Ming Polytechnic and arrived in front of the lecture hall. Before the car could stop, Principal An Xiangping hurried forward and came to the first car. The moment he reached out to pull the car door, the car door had already opened from the inside, and a middle-aged man stepped out of the car.

"Director Song, let me introduce to you. This is An Xiangping, the president of Mingxi University of Technology. President An, this is Director Song from the Ministry of Science and Technology."

Yuan Liang, deputy director of the Provincial Department of Science and Technology, who got off the other side of the car, ran over and introduced the two parties to each other.

"Haha, Director Yuan, no introduction is needed. Lao An and I are old friends." The middle-aged man known as Director Song said with a smile, and at the same time reached out to shake hands with An Xiangping.

His name is Song Xiujie, a deputy director of the Ministry of Science and Technology. He was in charge of the machine tool project jointly launched by several national ministries and commissions a few years ago. This time, the "Large-size, High-hardness Special Rotating Surface Cutting Method" project in the machine tool project undertaken by Ouyang Kang, a professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Mingxi University of Technology, held an results appraisal meeting. Song Xiujie was the leader of the appraisal team.

Mingxi University of Science and Technology is a key university in China. It undertakes many of the country's key scientific research projects every year. An Xiangping and Song Xiujie have known each other for a long time. They have drank together no less than ten times, but they really don't need Yuan Liang to help them. They make introductions.

"Haha, Director Song has always taken care of our Ming Polytechnic, and this time he made a special trip to guide our work. The teachers and students of our school feel very radiant."

An Xiangping and Song Xiujie shook hands and said polite words at the same time.

For engineering colleges like Ming Polytechnic, the status of the Ministry of Science and Technology is even higher than that of the Ministry of Education. The money given by the Ministry of Education is calculated on a per capita basis. The quality of the relationship between the school and the Ministry of Education will not affect the amount of funds allocated. But the money in the hands of the Ministry of Science and Technology is linked to projects. If the relationship is good, if you get more projects, you can get a lot more funding. In this sense, An Xiangping wanted to flatter Song Xiujie no matter what.

At this time, the people in the two cars behind also got off. Song Xiujie led An Xiangping over and introduced him:

"Lao An, let me introduce to you. This is Kang Zhichao, deputy chief engineer of the Shipbuilding Corporation. Chief Engineer Kang has always been concerned about your subject of high-hard surface processing. He went to our science and technology department to inquire about the progress, and asked if there was any progress. More than a dozen times. If you hadn’t made a technological breakthrough this time and produced a machine tool prototype, I wouldn’t have dared to meet Mr. Kang.”

Kang Zhichao waved his hand and said, "Director Song is exaggerating. Aren't I also anxious?"

As he said that, he quickly stepped forward, shook hands with An Xiangping, and said with some excitement: "Principal An, thank you for providing another sharp tool for our ship system. This technology you have broken through can make We are getting rid of our dependence on Leiden Company. As you know, Leiden Company sells us high-hardness surface processing machine tools, which must be equipped with monitoring chips. We are strictly prohibited from using these machine tools to produce military products. Alas, we are really controlled by others. fed up."

"Thank you, Mr. Kang!" An Xiangping said, "We can't bear the word "thank you". As a key university, we are responsible for developing cutting-edge technology and equipment for the country. What we do is all We are doing our job, and we will ask Chief Engineer Kang to give us more guidance at the appraisal meeting later."

"Haha, I'm here to learn from Principal An and Professor Ouyang." Kang Zhichao said.

After the two of them finished their greetings, Song Xiujie introduced the next distinguished guest to An Xiangping:

"This is Comrade Tang Zifeng, general manager of Linhe Machine Tool Group Co., Ltd. in Dongye Province. Mr. Tang is also the Secretary-General of the Secretariat of the 'Canglong Machine Tool Cooperation Unit Joint Conference'. Regarding the situation of this organization, Mr. Tang, please do it yourself Let’s introduce it to Principal An.”

"Director Song, you're welcome. Just call me Xiao Tang." Tang Zifeng said modestly, then turned his head, shook hands with An Xiangping, and said, "Principal An, I am a bad guest. We Canglong The Joint Meeting of Machine Tool Cooperation Units is actually a cooperation mechanism formed by the 20 largest domestic machine tool companies a few years ago. It mainly coordinates the technology development of each company and avoids duplication of investment.

"This time, I heard that Professor Ouyang of your school has broken through the world-class problem of high-hard surface processing. Our engineers there were very excited and entrusted me to express their respect to Professor Ouyang on their behalf. At the same time, we also want to see I wanted to see if there were any opportunities for cooperation, so I came uninvited. Principal An won’t blame me.”

"No way!" An Xiangping laughed, "We can't even invite VIPs like Mr. Tang. When we hold the appraisal meeting this time, we have always wanted to invite leaders and experts from the business community to come over for guidance, but I didn’t know how to contact you, so I entrusted Director Song and others to send the invitations on my behalf.

"Our school has always advocated the integration of industry, academia and research. This time Mr. Tang is here, we can have a good talk and see what kind of cooperation can be carried out in the future. You have funds, experience, and production capacity. We Bian may have some strengths in theoretical research, so our cooperation should be considered a strong alliance, right?"

"It's definitely a strong alliance. We really need experts and professors from universities to guide our work." Tang Zifeng's face was filled with the word sincerity. Sun Min, Guan Yong and Yu Xiaohui, who were following him, felt in their hearts. He was snickering, but naturally he didn't dare to show it at all on his face.

Ming Polytechnic is responsible for the project entrusted by the Ministry of Science and Technology. When the appraisal meeting is held, the experts will naturally be invited by the Ministry of Science and Technology. Tang Zifeng said that he came uninvited, but in fact it was just a polite word. He actually got an invitation from the Ministry of Science and Technology.

Those responsible for the technical appraisal of the project were Kang Zhichao, Sun Min, Guan Yong and several other experts who arrived early. Tang Zifeng did not understand technology, so the Ministry of Science and Technology invited him to come over, mainly to ask him to provide advice on the application and promotion of technology. Some opinions.

Before Tang Zifeng came to Ming Dynasty, he told Sun Min and others that he had some doubts about the authenticity of Ouyang Kang's achievement, and asked Sun Min, Guan Yong and others to be more careful and look for flaws. Yu Xiaohui volunteered to follow Tang Zifeng. Xiao Wenjun was still in confinement and could not go out, so he arranged for Yu Xiaohui to be an on-site technical consultant for Tang Zifeng, so that Tang Zifeng would not understand anything and make a joke.

Originally with the mentality of finding trouble, Tang Zifeng was able to say so sincerely when greeting An Xiangping. This dark skill really opened the eyes of a group of technical nerds. Otherwise, those who work hard should govern others, and those who work hard should govern others. Skilled migrant workers like me who use a mouse to draw pictures deserve to be expelled by people like Mr. Tang.

Seeing that the time was approaching, An Xiangping greeted Song Xiujie and led everyone into the lecture hall.

The large lecture hall was naturally meticulously decorated, with banners hanging above the lecture seats and a huge projection screen on the wall with the cover of the report slide: Danrui 03 Machine Tool Technical Report. In the first two rows of the auditorium, the tables were covered with dark red tablecloths, and were placed with notepaper, pencils, water glasses, fruit plates and table signs. Each table in the first row also had a table covered with red silk cloth. Microphone, which is convenient for leaders and experts to ask questions.

Seeing An Xiangping leading people in, a man who had been sitting in front of a computer at the lecture table stood up and walked quickly towards An Xiangping and his party.

"Hello, Director Song. I would like to trouble you to come here in person this time."

The man said to Song Xiujie, and at the same time glanced around the others with his eyes. His eyes stayed on each person's face for a moment, and his face quickly switched between "hello" and "goodbye" expressions. Within a few seconds, he greeted everyone with his eyes, making everyone feel like they were in the spring breeze.

This kid is simply a human spirit!

Tang Zifeng sighed in his heart.

"He is Professor Ouyang, the young talent our Mingxi Province introduced last year."

An Xiangping introduced everyone. Ouyang Kang was responsible for a key project of the Ministry of Science and Technology, and had gone through several steps such as application, project establishment, and mid-term review, so he knew Song Xiujie. It was the first time for Kang Zhichao and Tang Zifeng to meet him, so An Xiangping naturally had to introduce him.

"I'm sorry, leaders and experts, Principal An said that today's report is very important. He asked me to seize all the time to familiarize myself with the report materials. I was not allowed to go outside to greet you, so it is really rude."

After An Xiangping introduced everyone to Ouyang Kang, Ouyang Kang bowed his hands, bowed to everyone, and apologized.

"Haha, Ouyang, look what you said. You are the protagonist today, and we are all here to support you. Can you say whether it is rude or not?"

Song Xiujie laughed and said, from the way he addressed Ouyang Kang, everyone could feel that he valued Ouyang Kang very much. Ouyang Kang is the same age as Tang Zifeng and is only 32 years old this year. He is a junior in front of people like Song Xiujie and An Xiangping. Song Xiujie called him "Ouyang", which meant that he didn't treat him as an outsider.

Everyone took their seats according to the instructions of the table sign. Assistant-level guests like Yu Xiaohui were passers-by who were not worthy of having the table sign and could only sit in the back row. There were already many people sitting in the lecture hall, including experts who came to participate in the appraisal, teachers and students who came to observe, and another group of people who were invited by Ming Polytechnic and Mingxi Science and Technology Department.

Some tripods for taking pictures have been set up at various locations in the lecture hall, and the photographers' guns and cannons are all aimed at the lecture seat.
