"Hey! Are you blind? Give me a hand."
The young man squatting in front of him until his legs were numb was Chen Yu. He was fair and fair, with a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose. He looked like a polite student. When Phytophthora came back in the evening, he was squatting in the yard to repair something. He was looking for cracks on the small tire air core of a broken motorcycle. He was covered in black oil. Phytolacca reached out and gave him a hand. The latter slowly stood up and patted his thigh. His face was distorted: "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh... I'm numb."
"I am……"
"I know who you are, a technician from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, a top student." Chen Yu patted his shoulder with a jet-black oily hand, "I am Chen Yu, staff officer of the combat section of the headquarters. I will live in the same room with you from now on. We are roommates, let’s get to know each other.”
After speaking, he unbuttoned his shirt, put the 07-style short-sleeved summer uniform on his shoulders, picked up the plastic washbasin on the ground, and went to the sink in the yard to collect water.
"A lot of things happened on your first day at 151, right?" Chen Yu stood by the pool and turned to ask him.
"I've been shopping all day." Phytolacca replied, "I went to have dinner with someone in the evening."
He got up early this morning and was dragged around to visit, and his legs were broken. Near noon, he was taken to the workshop to see Old Man Ji. It was a heart-warming persuasion. Old Man Ji was afraid that he would run away, but at least he saw it for the first time. When we arrived at Juwei, we were able to gain something. In the afternoon, we followed Mr. Ji to get familiar with the business, and in the evening he took him to have dinner with the base leaders.
Old Man Ji proudly introduced Phytolacca to everyone at the dinner table: This is the disciple of my old guy at the Institute of Automation, an undergraduate from Tsinghua University! A student who is a third-level academician of the International Astronautical Society of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and the International Astronautical Society! Top talent! Those who were about to be snatched away by the rear agencies when they left home were fought over by me, and they were all taken care of by me.
Shang Luxin said that Old Man Ji was drunk. When did his boss become an academician of the International Astronautical Society?
But he didn't dare to speak. There were big leaders at the table.
Old Man Ji also said that your mentor was responsible for designing the first generation of giant weapons. You are your mentor's student. Honglian is the third generation and the granddaughter of the first generation of giant weapons. Therefore, according to seniority, Honglian wants to call you... ...call you grandpa.
Shang Lu thought to himself, “F*ck.”
"Who are you going to eat with?"
"lead."
"The chief engineer took you there, right?" Chen Yu shrugged, "The chief engineer has been looking for someone from above for a long time, howling every day, and finally you are here. Doesn't this make him extremely happy?"
"Shall I help you drive this motorcycle back?" Shanglu asked.
"Okay, okay, just rush to the warehouse over there. Sorry to bother you." Chen Yu twisted the towel in the basin, "Has the chief engineer assigned you a job?"
"I didn't say the specific position, but I said everything I saw belongs to me." Shanglu kicked the motorcycle's legs back hard, then stepped on it and turned the key to change gears, "Then the boss is a giant machine, something dozens of meters high. , actually saying that it all belongs to me? Damn it, a Boeing 747 has to be maintained by a bunch of people."
"You've seen the giant machine, what do you think?"
"Big." Phytolacca said, "You can crush me with one finger. How can a girl control such a huge thing?"
"Hey, have you seen the driver?" Chen Yu was a little surprised.
"When I went up, their test had just finished. The driver came out of the giant machine, and I gave her a hand." Shanglu recalled the young woman he met in Honglian's maintenance workshop at noon. It was hard to imagine such a It’s incredible that a girl can be Guren’s manipulator.
"Then you're in luck. It's hard to meet them." Chen Yu said, "But if you follow the chief engineer in the future, you will have more opportunities to meet them."
"How many years can you live with him?" Shanglu sighed. Old Man Ji's fifty-eight years old looked like he was sixty-eight. "Why can't you change gears on your motorcycle?"
"The key is turned backwards." Chen Yu turned his head and glanced at him from a distance, "Isn't this obvious? The chief engineer wants to train you as his successor. For a long time, he has been worried that he has no successor. What if? Unfortunately, something unexpected happened. What will happen to my abilities? It will be easier if you come here. Sooner or later, you will have to take over from him."
"But it's just my first day here?"
"Do you believe that before he even met you, he helped you figure out where your children will go to school in the future?"

The sky is gradually getting dark, and a muggy and hot evening wind is blowing in the mountains. The sun does not set in Chongqing until after seven o'clock in the evening in August and September. Today, the people on duty at the base have come back one after another. They come from all directions. Emerging, they stepped into the yard in twos and threes, unbuttoning their clothes and saying hello to Chen Yu.
"Present your advisor!"
"put!"
"Show it! Have you eaten?"
"Why did they ask you to serve as a staff officer?" Shanglu asked.
Chen Yu rolled his eyes.
"Because in Chongqing dialect, fish is called fish swinging." Someone behind Shangluca replied with a loud voice.
He turned around and saw a burly man with a height of at least 1.85 meters walking out of the warehouse. He didn't know when he went in. He just pushed the motorcycle into the warehouse and didn't see anyone inside. Wearing a yellow white vest and 07-type camouflage training uniform trousers, he was in his forties. He was holding a big wrench in one hand and a dirty torn bag in the other.
"Business chief." Chen Yu called him, put a towel on the edge of the plastic washbasin, and then walked over to introduce him, "Let me introduce to you, this is the 151 technical specialist stationed in support of the Institute of Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the general manager of the base. Gong, Phytolacca."
"What little chief engineer?" Shanglu frowned.
On the first day he came to the base, he had become Honglian's grandfather and the heir of Old Man Ji without any reason, and now he also had the title of little chief engineer.
Is it because I got so many titles from heaven because I got into Tsinghua University in the college entrance examination?
"It will happen sooner or later." Chen Yu lowered his voice, "When you are promoted to chief engineer, don't forget to promote me. Don't forget each other if you want to be rich or noble."
"The business manager of the Combat Technology Section of the 151 Support Base Equipment Department, Geng Sanqi." The business manager saluted Phytolacca, then stepped forward to shake hands, "Hello, little chief engineer."
"No...I...just call me Phytolacca."
Phytolacca was a little cramped, and his hands were tightly held by the strong and warm hands of the strong man.
"Chief salesperson, will you continue the experiment tonight?" Chen Yu asked.
"Continue." The sales manager nodded, "I have overcome several technical difficulties in the past two weeks. Experiments have proved that as long as the diameter of the air inlet is increased by three percentage points, the fuel utilization rate can be improved..."
"Stop it, stop it, Chief Sales Officer, no one here cares about your progress. You can report these things to the chief engineer. We only ask that you don't do experiments after 10:30 pm." Chen Yu interrupted him, "Besides, you must Be careful and don’t blow off the roof of the warehouse.”
"I'll do the work, don't worry."
Chen Yu dragged Phytolacca away, and the latter asked curiously: "What experiment is he doing?"
"The business chief believes that we are short of resources and will run out of fuel sooner or later. However, coal reserves are much higher than oil, and coal must be utilized, so he is designing and planning a coal-burning aircraft engine." Chen Yu said as he walked. , "The name seems to be coal-fired pulse aircraft engine."
"Coal-burning airplane?" Phytolacca was surprised. There were all strange people in this yard.
"Give him some time. I think he will be able to fly a coal-burning rocket sooner or later." Chen Yu said, "Don't you want to see Seraph? I'll take you there."
Phytolacca became energetic, "Where should we go to see it?"
"a tree."
