In the 1990s, the Shonan Railway Station was still very backward, with only two platforms.
One of them is still a freight platform, and only one platform is actually used for passenger transportation.
After Zhang Xingyang and Liang Yi got off the passenger station, they didn't know which way to go.
The passenger terminal these days was not as user-friendly as it was later, and there were no various guide signs.
"Is there someone to pick you two up? How about I take you all the way?"
Fu Yichen asked enthusiastically. His life creed is that many friends have many paths, especially when the other person seems to have a lot of background.
"Someone should be here to pick her up. We informed them before we came."
Liang Yi glanced at Fu Yichen and said.
Fu Yichen didn't bother much and said enthusiastically:
"You are welcome to come to our home after your business trip."
Zhang Xingyang nodded, and then he and Liang Yi followed the flow of people out of the station and walked out of the train platform.
As soon as I exited the station, I saw a familiar figure holding a big sign.
[Welcome the leaders of the Rocket Research Institute to visit the 703 factory for investigation and inspection]
Xu Yuanchao, who is over 1.9 meters tall, is very conspicuous in a group of people.
Zhang Xingyang saw the other party, stretched out his hand and waved, shouting:
"We're here!"
Xu Yuanchao heard the sound, looked over, and then walked over with a smile on his face.
"Dean Zhang, welcome. You've had a hard time coming here."
Zhang Xingyang smiled, shook hands with Xu Yuanchao, pointed to Liang Yi beside him, and said:
"This is the finance of our institute, Liang Yi."
Xu Yuanchao smiled cheerfully, stretched out his hand to Liang Yi, and said:
"Nice to meet you, Liang Yi. Just call me Lao Xu."
Liang Yi also shook hands enthusiastically and responded:
"We are about the same age, just call me Lao Liang."
The three people exchanged simple greetings for a while and prepared to leave the train station.
Only Fu Yichen was still standing there, a little surprised. He didn't expect that the young man who looked young was actually the leader of a research institute.
After leaving the train station, Xu Yuan drove over to a Jinbei Hiace van, rolled down the window, and said:
"Get in the car!"
Zhang Xingyang sat on the fabric seat, touched the somewhat rough fabric, and lamented the backward ergonomics of the automobile industry in this era. He looked at Xu Yuanchao who was driving ahead and asked:
"Old Xu, where should we go first?"
Xu Yuanchao turned around while driving and said cheerfully:
"We will go to the local guest house first and then pick you up."
Liang Yi and Zhang Xingyang looked at each other at this time. According to their plan before coming, the first thing to do was to go to the factory for inspection.
So Zhang Xingyang said: "Old Xu, there is no need to go to so much trouble, we can just go to the factory first."
Xu Yuanchao obviously did not expect that Zhang Xingyang would be so impatient to go to the factory, and said a little embarrassed:
"Xingyang, everything has been arranged at the guest house. Why don't we go to the guest house first?"
Zhang Xingyang still insisted: "No need, let's go to the factory first and we can eat and talk later."
Xu Yuanchao couldn't insist on anything at this time. After all, he was begging the other party for this cooperation.
So he could only turn the steering wheel helplessly and said:
"Okay, let's go directly to the factory."
The performance of the Jinbei Hiace is quite good in this era. The car drove for less than half an hour and arrived at the 703 factory at the foot of the mountain.
The factory is a very common third-line construction style, with a welcome message written on the red cloth hanging above the door.
[Warmly welcome the leaders of the Rocket Research Institute to inspect the 703 factory! 】
When Xu Yuanchao was driving just now, he had already notified the factory with a BB camera that he and his party were going directly to the factory for inspection.
Zhang Xingyang got off the car, and before he could take a breath of fresh air, his hands were held by a pair of rough hands.
"We welcome the leaders of the Rocket Research Institute to visit our 703 factory."
A middle-aged man with a dark face who looked like an old farmer held Zhang Xingyang's hands with excitement.
He kept shaking, as if he wanted to break his hands.
Zhang Xingyang finally took his hands out of the other party's hands and said:
"No need to be so polite."
Liang Yi also helped at this time and said:
"Comrade, let's take a look at the situation in the factory first. Let's finish the work first and then talk about other things."
At this time, Hu Deming still catered enthusiastically:
"That's right, that's right, let's talk about work first, let's talk about work first."
As he spoke, Hu Deming led everyone the way.
Zhang Xingyang walked into the factory area. At this time, the factory buildings were still red brick buildings in the style of Mao Xiong. Between the factory buildings were rows of camphor trees that had just sprouted young leaves.
Entering the workshop, Hu Deming was still introducing the glorious history of Factory 703.
Talking about their previous history of producing carbon fiber for the military, they have made a huge contribution to the production of domestic military weapons.
Zhang Xingyang looked at the production equipment in the factory silently, sighing silently in his heart.
In this era, the localization process of various "high-tech products" is not easy.
The performance of these machines can only be said to be equivalent to the level abroad twenty years ago and the level when carbon fiber was just starting out.
To meet the production requirements of new materials, a lot of equipment upgrades are needed.
The yield rate of their carbon fiber production is not high, and the weaving density of the carbon cloth is limited.
If such basic materials are used for subsequent processing, the scrap rate of the final product will be too high, and the cost will be so high that it is difficult to add.
Zhang Xingyang didn't see many workers in the factory.
Only a small amount of equipment is still running, and workers in twos and threes stand expressionlessly next to the equipment and are busy.
Zhang Xingyang also noticed that although the workload of the workers in the factory was not heavy, their work attitude was still very strict, and there were no illegal operations.
This can be regarded as one of the few advantages of this declining factory.
With these high-quality workers, there is still some possibility for the factory to start over.
Zhang Xingyang thought silently in his heart.
"Dean Zhang, you have also seen the situation in our factory. Do you have any ideas?"
After Hu Deming introduced the basic situation of the factory to everyone, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked.
Zhang Xingyang retracted his glance, looked at the people who were looking at him expectantly, and said in silence for a moment:
“The factory’s equipment is a bit old and needs some upgrades, and if we want to produce new materials, we need to add a certain amount of equipment.”
Hearing Zhang Xingyang's words, everyone in Factory 703 was a little embarrassed. After all, it was not easy to upgrade equipment and purchase new equipment due to the current situation in the factory.
Zhang Xingyang saw everyone's expressions and naturally knew what they were thinking. He changed his tone and said:
"Of course, the quality of the workers in the factory seems to be good. It is worthy of being an old military factory. However, if the subsequent production of new materials starts, this manpower will not be enough."
At this time, Hu Deming, the director of Factory 703, said with a smile:
"Our factories are not different, but the quality of our workers is absolutely impeccable. After all, they are all military workers!
Don’t worry about manpower. The current situation in our factory is that there are more people than orders.
As long as work can start, there will be enough manpower! "
Zhang Xingyang nodded, looked at Xu Yuanchao and asked:
"Old Xu, what's the military's idea? It's impossible for our research institute to take on all these tasks, right?"
