Material Empire

"Eighty percent?"

Cui Hongchun frowned and thought for a while, then said to his secretary Li Yang: "Xiao Li, leave a call for Xiao Qin. The Ministry must fully support this matter. No matter what resources Xiao Qin needs, as long as the Ministry can If you do, you can help him coordinate."

"Yes." Li Yang replied obediently, but he was sighing in his heart, this Qin Hai really has too much face, he has followed the minister for so many years, and he has never seen the minister make such a promise to anyone.

Then there was nothing else to say, Cui Hongchun told Qin Hai to help Wang Changsong adjust the action plan, Qin Hai naturally agreed. Afterwards, Chen Heqian and Qin Hai got up and said goodbye. Cui Hongchun offered to send a car to take Chen Heqian back, but Chen Heqian politely declined.

An old man and a young man left the compound of the Ministry of Agriculture and came to the road outside. Chen Heqian grabbed Qin Hai and asked, "Xiao Qin, what method are you planning to use to improve the durability of the blade? I think Minister Cui attaches great importance to this matter. Don't let the minister down."

Qin Hai smiled and said, "I'm going to try ceramic materials, Mr. Chen, do you think it's feasible?"

"Ceramic material?" Chen Heqian was a little disappointed. He originally thought that Qin Hai had some brilliant idea. If he just used ceramic material to replace metal material, it really wasn't such a brilliant idea. It is well known that ceramics are more wear-resistant than steel. The biggest difficulty now is how to combine ceramics and steel. Chen Heqian himself has studied this problem, but he has never found an ideal way.

"Using the method of ceramic materials, I know that some foreign institutions are experimenting, and it seems that there is no substantive breakthrough. Are you sure?" Chen Heqian asked kindly.

Qin Haidao: "I have some ideas, but I'm afraid I need to try to know."

"Okay." Chen Heqian didn't press Qin Hai any more. Although he would consider himself Qin Hai's teacher in front of Cui Hongchun, he also knew that his relationship with Qin Hai was more like a partner, and he didn't force Qin Hai. Hai said about the power of technical know-how, he said: "This matter is of great importance, you must treat it with caution. I will also take time to study foreign materials and see if there is anything I can help you with. "

"Then thank you, Teacher Chen." Qin Hai said.

In the next few days, Qin Hai helped Wang Changsong revise the action plan at the Ministry of Agriculture. Following Cui Hongchun's instructions, a lot of research content on new materials and new techniques was added to the plan. These research contents will be issued to universities, research institutes and key enterprises in the form of topics and research tasks. Qin Hai fully weighed the difficulty of research and development of various technologies, and proposed topics and tasks that can be completed with the existing strength of each unit.

Qin Hai predicted that after the completion of these research tasks, the technical level of domestic agricultural machinery will be greatly improved, at least reaching the international level in the early 1980s. With this foundation, it will be easier to catch up with the international advanced level.

When it comes to the basic parts of agricultural machinery, Qin Hai simply proposed a goal to make the service life of most domestic basic parts reach the highest standard in the same period in the world within three years, completely replace imported basic parts, and achieve an annual export of 10 million pieces. above.

"Is this goal...is it too big?" Wang Changsong timidly asked Qin Hai for confirmation. He didn't dare to offend Qin Hai casually now, but he really didn't know the goal Qin Hai proposed.

Qin Hai smiled and said: "Director Wang, this goal is actually very easy to achieve. Think about it, as a Qingfeng agricultural machinery factory, it can export 1 million pieces of rotary tillage blades every year. There are so many large agricultural machinery factories in China, all kinds of The production capacity of plowshares and harrows can be easily increased to tens of millions. Our domestic labor cost is far lower than that of developed countries. As long as the product quality can reach the average level of foreign countries, it is not easy to export 10 million pieces. ?”

"But, can the quality of our basic parts be improved to this level?" Wang Changsong asked again.

Qin Haidao: "This is also easy. You can first let Qingfeng Agricultural Machinery Factory pass on their technical essentials to brother companies, and each company will then make adjustments based on the company's product characteristics. Minister Cui just gave me a task , is to develop the world's leading tool head treatment process. If this process can achieve a breakthrough, it can also be promoted throughout the country, and the technical level of our national basic parts enterprises will have a significant improvement."

"But..." Wang Changsong groaned in his heart. How dare he write such a craft that has not been researched directly into the plan? If something goes wrong, this board will hit his ass.

Qin Hai saw Wang Changsong's hesitation, and he said with a smile: "Director Wang, how can we do things without any risk? We put forward such a goal to encourage relevant companies to tackle key problems bravely. Think about it, if we can achieve such a goal Goal, then our agricultural machinery system has put a satellite, how glorious is this?"

"This...how about writing it like this first..." Wang Changsong said helplessly. In his heart, he had already made up his mind to ask Cui Hongchun for instructions. He can also see the benefits Qin Hai mentioned. From being far behind the world's advanced level to being able to export more than 10 million pieces of products a year, this achievement is heavy, and Wang Changsong cannot help but be moved.

The content related to the study of various mechanical equipment has not been completely deleted from the plan, but some necessary simplifications have been made, and some items have been listed as selective development items, which looks more complete and is also good for Those manufacturers have an explanation.

After the framework of the plan has been adjusted, the remaining work is to polish the text, which has nothing to do with Qin Hai. He greeted Cui Hongchun, Wang Changsong and others, then left the capital by car and returned to Anhe.

Qin Hai's first stop back to Anhe landed in Hongze. He came to Anhe Institute of Technology and invited Li Linguang out. As before, he chose a small restaurant as the place to meet and chat. After ordering food, he specially ordered half a catty of liquor for Li Linguang.

"Haha, Xiao Qin, are you being courteous for nothing?" Li Linguang looked at the wine glass in front of him and asked Qin Hai with a smile. After these two years of cooperation, the relationship between them has become quite close, and what Li Linguang said was just a joke.

Qin Hai picked up his wine glass and said with a smile, "Mr. Li, you are right. I do have something to ask of you. But let's have a few drinks before we talk."

"You have bad intentions, you want to get me drunk so that you can plot against me." Li Linguang said.

Qin Hai shook his head: "This is wrong. I know that Mr. Li has always been drunk and his mind is clear. The more he drinks, the clearer his mind becomes. This is the reason why I want to invite you to drink first and then talk about things. "

"Really? Then I won't be polite." Li Linguang laughed, clinked glasses with Qin Hai, and drank all the wine in the glass.

Since Qin Hai said that he was not in a hurry to talk about serious matters, the two started chatting with some gossip. Li Linguang asked about Qin Hai's recent situation. Qin Hai told Li Linguang about the transaction of automobile material technology in Pujiang and the formulation of the action plan by the Ministry of Agriculture. Li Linguang couldn't help but sighed, "Hey, it's really not easy to do something in China, Xiao Qin, you are not only excellent in technology, but also good at dealing with the world. You are the material for an academic leader."

"Mr. Li is too much." Qin Hai smiled, "I just don't have so many selfish thoughts, I just want to do things well. In contrast, some of our leaders have too many thoughts in their hearts."

"Yes, for us, technological breakthroughs are a kind of career pursuit and personal hobbies. But for some leaders, it is just a political achievement, a means to claim credit for their superiors. The ancients said, Taoism It’s different, if we don’t conspire with each other, we can’t have a common language with these people.” Li Linguang said with deep empathy.

Qin Haidao: "Mr. Li, you really hit the point. Now I have a task at hand, which is a typical task of political achievement, and I am worrying about what to do."

"You still have something to worry about?" Li Linguang smiled. He knew Qin Hai well enough to know that Qin Hai was just pretending. If it really made Qin Hai worry, he would definitely not take it.

Qin Haidao: "This is the task assigned by the minister. I have to do it if I don't want to, so I feel worried."

"Tell me, what is it?" Li Linguang said.

Qin Hai introduced the International Farming Machinery Exhibition to Li Linguang, and finally said that Cui Hongchun hoped that he could produce blades that reached the international advanced level and get a ranking at the exhibition.

Li Linguang frowned and asked, "What do you estimate is the service life to be guaranteed to get the ranking?"

"More than 2,500 mu." Qin Hai said.

"This is impossible!" Li Linguang blurted out. Li Linguang also participated in the improvement of the rotary tillage blade technology at Qingfeng Factory, and he has a better understanding of the service life of the blades. He knew that it was still possible to increase the lifespan of the blade by a few hundred acres, but it was simply a fantasy to double it. Foreign countries can do it because their material technology has reached a very high level. This cannot be achieved by a single company's own efforts. What is needed is the support of the entire industrial system.

Qin Haidao: "Mr. Li, I have a very good idea. Under the existing conditions, the life of the blade can be increased not only by one time, but by several times. Is Mr. Li interested in participating?"

"What idea?" Li Linguang became interested.

Qin Haidao: "My method is actually very simple. If Mr. Li is interested, I think we need to make an agreement first. I will provide all the research funds, including your remuneration to Mr. Li, but the final result will be I own it, and I want to own all the patents."
