Yang Xiaotao returned to the steel rolling mill simply because he wanted to work overtime with a group of old guys. After all, he stayed at his job at such an old age. As a young man, he had no reason to leave early.

Talk about the position.

hehe.

They are all working for the revolutionary construction, so what is the distinction between high and low?

If anything, in the eyes of these masters, it is also about the level of skill and ability.

Of course Yang Xiaotao is at the top of the steel rolling mill in this regard.

The car has been put away and the children's affairs have been arranged. It's just a matter of tomorrow's exam.

I believe that the psychological quality of the candidates who have been tortured by "question brushing" will be stronger.

When we arrived at the warehouse, we were still busy inside. At night, after Taiyang got off work, it finally got a little cooler. At some point, two steam fans appeared at the door, spinning loudly, blowing wind into the warehouse.

Yang Xiaotao had just walked into the warehouse and before he was ready to start working, a figure walked out of it.

"Old Chen, why are you here?"

Yang Xiaotao saw that it was Chen Gong and quickly stepped forward to greet him.

"Let's go out and talk."

Chen Gong's face was solemn, and Yang Xiaotao felt a little nervous.

The two came to the door of the warehouse. Chen Gong took out a cigarette and handed it to Yang Xiaotao. The two lit it in the dark night, and the sparks flickered along with the smoke.

"Something happened, let me tell you."

Chen Gong spoke, and Yang Xiaotao listened carefully.

"The data and materials you submitted for several important components are not qualified in China."

"what material?"

"It's the tungsten alloy steel you mentioned."

"Tungsten alloy? Isn't it available in China?"

Chen Gong nodded. He had been inquiring about the news in the past two days. Several large steel mills called and inquired, including the most famous Anhai Steel Mill.

The other party's answer was that they are still studying it.

In other words, there is no tungsten alloy that Yang Xiaotao needs in China.

Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath of cigarette and mentally thought about countermeasures.

The reason for choosing tungsten alloy is that this metal has high hardness and good wear resistance. Of course, Yang Xiaotao can also choose ordinary quenched steel instead, but as the first machine tool based on the 'mother machine', Yang Xiaotao doesn't want to be fooled.

I don’t want to leave any regrets in the end.

"Can't you think of a way?"

Chen Gong was silent for a long time before nodding, "I will tell Lao Yang tomorrow and let him respond to his superiors."

"This is all we have now. If it doesn't work, let's see if there are any overseas."

After Chen Gong finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao was helpless.

He doesn't know much about steelmaking.

As for the domestic steel mills, even though they are rolling mills, they often deal with Gangte, but when it comes to production technology, they are not as good as the workers in the steel mills.

"Let's do this for now."

After Chen Gong finished speaking, he walked towards the office. He wanted to find someone to ask if there was anyone.

Yang Xiaotao returned to the warehouse. Chang Mingjie came to the side with the drawings. When he saw Yang Xiaotao, he stepped forward to ask.

"Team leader, Deputy Director Chen mentioned it just now."

"You see, if the parameters of these components are changed, the existing steel materials in our factory should be able to be used."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao took the design drawings, which were the important cutting and stamping parts of the machine tool.

"Chang Gong, if our ordinary steel is used, do you think it will be useful for processing some alloys?"

"A knife can't cut meat, so it's not as useful as a stick."

"You still need to be tough to make iron."

Chang Mingjie nodded helplessly after hearing this. He just gave his opinion and allowed the machine tool to be completed smoothly, which was regarded as handing in the task.

However, Yang Xiaotao still insisted on high-standard design. Although the final machine tool was made by doing so,...

As an engineer, he has also been on business trips in China and knows the situation well.

The kind of tungsten alloy Yang Xiaotao needs is not available much in neighboring countries, let alone in China.

The Alliance definitely has it, but given the current international situation, it’s strange that the Alliance is willing to give it.

"Then these parts can only be postponed."

Chang Mingjie sighed helplessly, Yang Xiaotao had no other choice. If he didn't want to give in, he could only wait.

"Tell Guanyu and the others that if you encounter such a part, keep it for a while, and we'll make it with steel when it comes."

"I know!"

Returning to his workstation, Yang Xiaotao looked at the semi-finished products he made in the morning and settled down to prepare for work.

But there is always a shackle in my heart that prevents me from meditating.

Liu Daming on the side saw Yang Xiaotao's strangeness, walked aside, took the tool from Yang Xiaotao, and then started working.

Yang Xiaotao did not refuse, but just stood aside and watched Liu Daming work.

It wasn't until 11 o'clock in the middle of the night that people in the warehouse began to leave manually. Zhang Guanyu and four people with people from the technical department put away the qualified parts, and Wang Hao and people guarded them.

Yang Xiaotao and Liu Daming walked out together.

"I've heard that steel doesn't work, right?"

Yang Xiaotao nodded.

"Well, this is the situation in our country."

Liu Daming walked with his hands behind his back, "The steel rolling mill in our factory back then was made in Germany, and you were asked to evaluate it at that time."

"In that machine, the missing bolts had to be replaced because the steel was not up to standard."

"This kind of thing has been happening for many years."

"It looks like we are making a new one and using it as a replacement, but in fact, in terms of materials, it is just like the one made by others. It is very different."

Liu Daming sighed all the way, and the two of them walked out of the gate. Only then did Yang Xiaotao remember that the car was still in the carport.

Seeing the way Liu Daming was walking, Yang Xiaotao had no intention of going back to catch the bus and might as well just follow him.

"What's the situation in our steel plant?"

"Are you talking about SJS?"

Yang Xiaotao nodded.

This is also the main factory that supplies steel to the rolling mills.

"I don't know the details, but a few years ago they made side-blown converters and the steel they produced was good. Later I heard that they were building an oxygen-blown furnace and the quality of the steel ingots they produced was much better. I don't know if it's true or not."

Liu Daming muttered, and Yang Xiaotao was also at a loss. He didn't know much about steelmaking and oxygen blowing furnaces as Liu Daming did.

The two of them walked to a fork in the road. The dim light bulb on the roadside was shining with yellow light. In the dark night, it was like a beam of light, shining vertically on the ground.

Liu Daming stopped, hammered his back twice, turned around and said to Yang Xiaotao, "I know you may not like to hear this, but there are some things where you have to learn to compromise and wait."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "What we are doing this time is a code-name mission. If we cannot come up with a reasonable 'machine tool' in the end, the mission will be considered a failure."

"If this is the case, what do you want our steel rolling mill to do in the future?"

After Liu Daming finished speaking, when he saw Yang Xiaotao thinking deeply, he turned around and walked into the darkness.

Phew~

With a gentle breath, Yang Xiaotao lowered his head, put his hands in his pockets, and slowly walked towards the courtyard.

When I got home, I first got a basin of water, washed myself from head to toe, and finally took a shower, and then I lay down in the room and got ready to sleep.

Xiaowei flew out from the bedside, saw Yang Xiaotao's absent-minded look, flew to Yang Xiaotao's chest, and danced the 'elf dance'.

"Xiaowei, it would be great if you were a golden elf."

Whoosh?

"Uh, it's okay. I mean the wood elves are pretty good too. Of course it would be better if there was another golden elf."

Whoosh?

"I mean to be your companion, maybe we can start a family. By the way, what will Jin and Mu give birth to? A water elf? Or something else?"

Phew!

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, sleep, sleep."
