Material Empire

Under the quiet staring eyes, Qin Hai felt a little guilty. He said dully, "That's not what I mean. I mean, if there is someone you really like, tell me the name."

"What are you doing?" Tranquility asked strangely before she could react for a while.

Qin Hai said: "I'll kill you."

"You're swearing, you're swearing!" Tranquility turned from anger to joy, but she was too embarrassed to express her happiness directly, so she could only grasp Qin Hai's fault of swearing, and punched Qin Hai violently with her fist. Qin Hai giggled and dodged, the room was bright and beautiful.

"Uh... I'd better go to the school library to read." Qin Shan couldn't stand it anymore. Although one was her brother and the other was her best friend, how could she, a big girl, do such a scene that was not suitable for children? Read on calmly. She stood up and planned to pack her schoolbag.

"Okay, okay, let's stop making trouble. Xiaoshan, let's let Qin Hai take us to the movies? I haven't seen a movie for a long time." Tranquility let go of Qin Hai, and said, holding Qin Shan's arm.

"I can..." Qin Shan just wanted to refuse, but suddenly rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Okay, brother, please invite me to go to the movies peacefully."

"It's easy, let's go, let's eat first, and then go to the movies after dinner." Qin Hai readily agreed.

The three had a simple dinner in a restaurant not far from Huaqing University. When she came out of the restaurant and was about to drive to the Wudaokou Cinema not far away to watch a movie, Qin Shan suddenly seemed to think of something, patted her head and said, "I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I remembered that my senior sister made an appointment with me tonight I did the experiment, why did I completely forget about it...Brother, Xiao Jing, you two go to the movies, I’m going back to school.”

After finishing speaking, she ran away in a hurry before the two of them came to their senses.

Qin Hai looked at the back of his sister going away, and muttered, "It's really..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly found that Tranquility was looking at him with teasing eyes. He was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Qin Shan was such a mess. She clearly didn't want to be a light bulb, so she found an excuse and ran away. After understanding this, he smiled awkwardly and said to Tranquility: "Look, Qin Shan is gone, why don't we go to the movies together..."

"Aren't you happy?" Tranquility looked at Qin Hai with a half-smile and said.

"No, no, I'm very happy." Qin Hai said, "I was thinking just now, should I also care about Qin Shan's life issues, and quickly find her a boyfriend or something."

"Ha, you just remembered now, your brother is too incompetent, you only thought of caring about your sister now." Tranquility said.

Qin Hai looked honest and honest, and said, "That's not what I mean, I mean, marry her off as soon as possible, so as not to be an eyesore..."

"Qin Hai, you are so insidious!"

"Or, let's find a way to get Ning Mo out as well, and get in the door somewhere..."

"Who is 'we' with you, Qin Hai, you are too narcissistic!"

"..."

That night, Qin Hai lived in the house rented by Ning Jing and Qin Shan. Of course, he lived in Qin Shan's room, and Qin Shan went to sleep in the same room as Ning Jing. In the early 1990s, Chinese society was not open enough, and Qin Hai didn't dare to risk being strangled to death by Ning Zhongying by doing anything offensive.

Early the next morning, Qin Hai drove Tranquility back to Capital University, and then took Qin Shan to the Chemical Engineering Design Institute. He made an appointment with Fan Zhiyuan of the Chemical Design Institute to discuss the design of ethylene complete sets of equipment today.

Ethylene is a basic chemical product, and many polymer materials need to use ethylene as a raw material. It is a long-established policy for Qin Hai to use ethylene as a breakthrough point to set foot in the field of basic chemical industry. As early as a year ago, he entrusted the Department of Chemical Engineering of Huaqing University and the National Chemical Engineering Design Institute to jointly carry out the design of 800,000 tons of ethylene equipment, and it has been a year now.

Before accepting Qin Hai's entrustment, the Chemical Engineering Design Institute had carried out the design of 300,000 tons of ethylene equipment and had certain experience, so the work of the principle design was progressing very smoothly. However, when it comes to the equipment manufacturing process, the Chemical Engineering Design Institute is a little bit blind. The main obstacle is the low-temperature materials that need to be used in ethylene equipment.

Ethylene production involves many low-temperature links. The so-called "three ethylene machines" used in the production process, that is, ethylene compressors, propylene compressors and cracked gas compressors, all work under low temperature conditions. The inlet temperature of the propylene compressor is Generally, it is minus 40 degrees Celsius, and the inlet temperature of the ethylene compressor reaches minus 102 degrees Celsius.

Under low temperature conditions, the strength of many materials will be greatly reduced, so that the normal use of the equipment cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, to manufacture ethylene equipment, low-temperature materials are the most critical link. In a compressor, many different components are involved, such as rotor impeller, spacer sleeve, shaft sleeve, screw, nut, welded casing, cast casing, etc. The materials used for each component are different due to different working conditions. China has been unable to achieve 100% localization of ethylene three machines for a long time. The main reason is that some brands of low-temperature steel cannot be produced independently.

In response to this situation, Qin Hai resolutely invested 20 million yuan to help the Chemical Equipment Institute establish a low-temperature material research center, and made a special trip to Russia to hire Victor Tsereteli and other experts in low-temperature materials. Recently, Fan Zhiyuan, who is the director of the Cryogenic Materials Research Center, called him to inform him that the research on low-temperature materials has made great progress, and he made a special trip today to find out the details.

As for the younger sister Qin Shan, Qin Hai has already decided to arrange her as the group's supervisor at the Cryogenic Materials Research Center. In the future, Qin Hai will establish a Daqin Chemical Engineering Technology Research Company with this low-temperature material research center and several other chemical laboratories as the core, and Qin Shan will be appointed as the chairman of this company.

During the period when Qin Hai was not in the capital, Qin Shan would go to these laboratories every now and then to learn about the specific research situation and report to Qin Hai by phone. Although Qin Hai did not explicitly tell Fan Zhiyuan and others about the arrangement for Qin Shan, everyone knows that Qin Shan is Qin Hai's younger sister, and they can guess the purpose of Qin Hai's arrangement for her to walk around the laboratory, so they will not reject her. Patrol.

"Welcome, welcome. Chairman Qin is welcome to visit the Chemical Design Institute."

At the gate of the design institute, Fan Zhiyuan and several heads of the research office were waiting for Qin Hai and his party. When they saw Qin Hai's car stop, they gathered around and greeted Qin Hai enthusiastically.

Qin Hai and Qin Shan got out of the car respectively. Qin Hai shook hands with everyone one by one, while Qin Shan followed behind Qin Hai with a shy expression, smiling at Fan Zhiyuan and the others. After greeting each other, Fan Zhiyuan asked: "Chairman Qin, shall we go directly to the research center, or go to our research room first?"

Fan Zhiyuan's official identity is the director of the first research office of the Chemical Engineering Design Institute. Inviting Qin Hai to sit in the research room is a more official reception etiquette, but it seems more casual to go directly to the research center. Qin Hai wasn't a person who cared about fame, he waved his hand and said, "Director Fan, let's not be polite, let's go directly to the research center."

"Okay then." Fan Zhiyuan replied, he instructed one of his subordinates to go back to the research room to inform everyone to attend a meeting in the research center, got into Qin Hai's car, and brought Qin Hai to the downstairs of the newly built research center. As for the other people who went to meet Qin Hai at the door, they arrived on their own bicycles.

Led by Fan Zhiyuan, Qin Hai had just entered the entrance of the research center when he bumped into an acquaintance, Tsereteli he dug from the Soviet Union. Tsereteli came out specially to meet Qin Hai, and when he saw Qin Hai, he opened his arms with a smile on his face. Qin Hai didn't dislike this kind of Russian etiquette, he laughed and hugged each other, then asked in English:

"Mr. Tsereteli, are you and your wife still used to living in China?"

"Thanks to Mr. Qin, my wife and I are very used to it in China." Tsereteli said with a smile, "My wife especially, except for some complaints about the hot summer weather, she feels that everything in China is very different. enjoyable."

"How is Mr. Rajimov?" Qin Hai asked Tsereteli's father-in-law in the Soviet Union again.

Tsereteli said: "He is also in good health, and he plans to return to China for a while."

"We welcome you very much." Qin Hai said, he turned his head and explained to Fan Zhiyuan next to him: "Director Fan, if Mr. Rajimov comes to China, all the reception expenses will be borne by the research center, and must be paid to the old man. Offer the best treatment."

"Haha, President Qin, don't worry, we will take good care of Mr. Rajimov." Fan Zhiyuan said.

Qin Hai did not ask Tsereteli about the situation of his son Seryozha, because Seryozha is currently working with Xie Qijin, and he is actually a peripheral employee of the Daqin Group, and Qin Hai knows his current situation very well. According to Xie Qijin, Xie Liaosha is now well-known in Chita and several surrounding states. Everyone knows that he is a broker of a large Chinese company, and many technicians who want to go to China for gold are in contact with him.

After chatting a few more homely words, Qin Hai said: "Mr. Tsereteli, I came here today mainly to understand the research situation of low-temperature steel. I heard from Director Fan that the research for this period of time is mainly led by you. , can you please give me a more detailed introduction?"

Tsereteli nodded and said, "Director Fan told me yesterday, I am very happy to introduce our latest research progress to you, please come with me."
