Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2449 Xiao Yang, will you cooperate?

Department 9, Office.

After Yang Xiaotao hung up the phone, he called Gui Ming, the director of the Jinmen Electronics Factory, again and asked them to be prepared to face inspection at any time.

Then, Wang Kun, Liu Yongqiang and others were asked to prepare for the handover of the ownership of the calculator. Some technologies needed to be taken out, but some needed to be retained.

Especially the basic industries, which are not within the scope of cooperation.

Just like the extraction of high-purity silicon, Yang Xiaotao has no obligation to teach France.

After explaining the situation, Yang Xiaotao put down the phone and continued to work on designing the Desert Eagle.

Liu Lixue and the other person saw that Yang Xiaotao had been silent since he finished the call, and was busy at his desk alone. He never mentioned anything about money from beginning to end. They looked at each other and had some guesses in their minds.

I guess, in all likelihood, it’s a failure again.

While Yang Xiaotao was busy, the two of them exchanged glances and went out to inquire about the news.

Yang Xiaotao knew nothing about this and focused entirely on studying the design drawings.

He had a feeling that today might be a day of double happiness.

At noon, after lunch, Yang Xiaotao was walking towards the office when he heard Yang Youning running towards him from behind. The smile on his face was like he had eaten bee shit and he couldn't suppress it.

"Old Yang, what's wrong with you?"

"Hey, they're out. Lao Liang and the others just came back. Guess how much they gave them this time?"

Yang Youning was just about to start dancing, he was so happy.

When Yang Xiaotao saw his expression, he knew it must be good news.

So, I thought boldly, "One hundred million?"

In an instant, the smile on Yang Youning's face disappeared.

"You, did you already know the result?"

"Did Mr. Chen tell you about this in advance?"

There was a sense of resentment as he spoke.

Yang Xiaotao couldn't stand his look and quickly explained, "No, if Mr. Chen told me, would I have to hide it?"

"I was thinking about what Mr. Peng promised. Mr. Chen can't ruin it, right? Besides, you look like you've gotten something for free. Would you be so happy if it wasn't for you?"

“So, it’s easy to guess.”

Yang Xiaotao explained, then came to his senses, "Did you really give 100 million?"

Yang Youning didn't care anymore. After all, the money was already in his hands, so what else was there to say?

"Yes, to be exact, it's 120 million, exactly half."

"Our Nine Departments are really well-stocked this time. We are going to be very prosperous."

"Let's go and take a look."

Yang Xiaotao pulled him and walked towards the Finance Department.

I guess the handover is going on at this moment.

Sure enough, when I arrived at the finance department, I saw a group of armed guards standing around, and many people in the room were doing inventory work.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao coming over, Li Hongfeng took the lead and said, "I brought back 10 million in cash this time, and the rest will be deposited into the public account."

Yang Xiaotao nodded. If he brought back so much money, he would have to find a place to put it and find someone to guard it. It would not be like now, where it was only ten million.

hiss~
Looking at the pile of money that almost filled the room, Yang Xiaotao felt a little dizzy.

This is all about unity.

A ten-dollar bill represents solidarity.

"I think we need to issue a hundred-dollar bill."

Li Hongfeng nodded silently after hearing this, "Yes, this is too much trouble to count."

Then, there was a burst of laughter all around.

"Old Li, Old Chen told me something!"

Yang Xiaotao remembered what Mr. Chen said about workers' participation in the Olympics. Although he felt that this matter had more symbolic significance than practical significance, it was a task assigned by the higher-ups after all, and the Ninth Department had to show its own attitude.

As for whether he can be selected to represent the country in the Olympics, Yang Xiaotao is very open-minded about it.

After all, the first Olympic gold medal in history had to wait until 84.

So, this time the important thing is to participate.

After Yang Xiaotao finished explaining the situation, Li Hongfeng and Lao Hong and others immediately became interested.

"I think we can hold a sports meet first to select a group of good talents."

Yang Youning's eyes flashed with a gleam and he immediately had an idea.

Chen Gong understood, "Yes, yes, we must strongly support it. It will enrich the spiritual life of our workers."

"I can see it."

Liu Huaimin also spoke up to express his agreement.

It is not clear about other places in the past two years, but the mental outlook of the workers at their original Red Star Machinery Factory has improved greatly. The workers usually go to work and go home, and their life outside of work is very monotonous.

It would be a good thing to take this opportunity to enrich the workers' spare time.

“Sports strengthen the body and the country.”

"I think it's okay."

Lao Hong also spoke up and agreed.

Seeing this, Li Hongfeng had no reason to refuse, and a few people decided to settle the matter.

Yang Xiaotao did not participate in this as he was busy now.

"You can do it yourself."

"By the way, it would be better to ask what events are included in the Olympics, so as not to waste time."

After saying that, Yang Xiaotao left the finance office.

Yang Youning called out from behind, "Xiao Yang, I think you can participate in weightlifting. I guarantee you will be able to win a championship."

Liu Huaimin, Chen Gong and others were also smiling. They had a deep understanding of Yang Xiaotao's strength. Back then, he was able to lift the well drilling rig by himself. He was so strong that no one else in the entire steel rolling mill could match him.

Yang Xiaotao waved his hand and walked back.

If he goes, he can really bring back a medal.

If nothing else, there is definitely no problem with weightlifting.

As for athletics, it should be no problem to train well and supplement your professional knowledge.

But, he doesn't have time.

There is someone in charge of the money, so Yang Xiaotao doesn't need to worry about it.

What he should worry about is how to turn these papers into strength for development.

The last distribution of 3 million is equivalent to 7.5 million. So far, only about 100,000 has been kept, and the rest has been given to local governments.

If you want the horse to run, you have to let it eat grass.

There is hardship and simplicity, but it is a spirit.

The spirit cannot lag behind, but material support cannot be lacking either.

This is where it’s used to the best advantage.

Back in the office, Yang Xiaotao calmed down and continued to work, but the others in the Ninth Department became restless.

This is easy to understand. It's like a young man who rents a house and eats instant noodles, and suddenly wins 100 million in the lottery. It would be strange if he could suppress his inner excitement.

Of course, there are many other people who are also becoming impetuous.

Seventh Machinery Department.

Old Wang sat on a chair holding a teacup in both hands. Although his face looked calm, his heart was in turmoil.

One hundred and twenty million.

This, how much is this?

If it were Great Unity, I guess this office wouldn’t be able to accommodate it.

No, it definitely can’t hold that.

His eyes were wandering around the empty office, but his expression was distracted.

If their Seventh Ministry of Machine Building had so much money, they would build two rockets at once, fly one and keep the other, instead of tinkering with them on the ground like they do now, and conducting simulation experiments one after another, which makes the designers very confused.

If their Seventh Ministry of Machine Building had so much money, he would also set up a Seventh People's Hospital. Who doesn't want his subordinates to be happy and cheerful?

if
"No, no." "If you keep going like this, the gap will get bigger and bigger."

Mr. Wang suddenly stood up from his chair and paced around the office.

I started counting the situations of the nine departments in my mind.

Starting from the Alloy Research Institute, followed by the Ordnance Research Institute, and then the medical field, all of these have more or less achieved results.

But the ones that come after are really eye-catching.

First was the manufacture of high-purity silicon, which directly opened the door to new industries.

Ju Laoqian said that if this thing is well made, it will change the future mode of warfare, and even their rockets and missiles will have to be used.

To this end, he also arranged for people to produce high-purity silicon according to the method submitted by the Ninth Ministry.
It can be done, but it's damn expensive.

What’s more important is that what they made is useless, and their integrated circuits are still in their infancy.

In this way, on average, every time high-purity silicon is produced, the company will lose tens of thousands of dollars.

Our life was already poor, so we couldn't afford such a waste.

So, this is the life of rich people, and it has nothing to do with the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building.

Then there is the calculator. This guy can use one of his patents to make a lot of different things.

The key is that they really make money.

All of a sudden, not only did we earn back the cost, but we also made a profit.

I'm jealous.

Then there are solar cells. I heard that the Chinese Academy of Sciences is also working on it, but the investment is not proportional to the returns. Just a high-purity silicon semiconductor is enough to make the old guys at the Chinese Academy of Sciences scratch their heads.

Finally, there are nine computers that are still under research.

This thing originally belonged to the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building. The reason why this department was established was because he was optimistic about it. However, over the years, either due to problems with ideas or funding, the development of computers has been lukewarm.

But who would have thought that after going to the Ninth Department, funding was no longer a problem. More importantly, it seemed that they had found a way of thinking. It was said that the progress was rapid and the first integrated circuit board was about to be made. It was really amazing and unimaginable.

"No, it's such a good thing, I will be unwilling if I don't get involved."

As he spoke, Mr. Wang walked straight out the door and went to Mr. Qian's office.

"Old Qian, you know about the Nine Departments, right?"

Mr. Qian was calculating the rocket's flight trajectory. When he heard what Mr. Wang said, he put down his pen and asked, "Are you talking about the money you made this time?"

Mr. Wang sat down and said, "Yes, this is a lot of money, 120 million."

"With this money, the development of the Nine Departments is like installing wings. It's hard not to fly."

Old Qian nodded, "Ministry Nine does have several good projects. This funding comes at the right time, it's like a timely help."

Speaking of this, Mr. Qian also felt somewhat relieved.

After all, Yang Xiaotao can be considered his student, and being able to achieve these results gives him a sense of accomplishment as a teacher.

"Old Qian, if we continue like this, we won't be able to keep up."

Mr. Wang was not as relieved as Mr. Qian, but he was worried.

Without waiting for Mr. Qian to ask, Mr. Wang said directly, "The high-tech development of the Ninth Department will drive changes in many industries, and our Seventh Department has a lot of research related to it."

"What do you think will happen if we can't keep up with the pace of the Nine Departments?"

"As you said, integrated circuits and computers will become important boosters for rockets in the future."

"But if we can't do it ourselves, how can we cooperate with others?"

Mr. Qian began to understand what Mr. Wang meant.

I’m just worried that the development of the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building won’t be able to keep up with the pace of the Ninth Ministry.

Now, that seems likely.

A solar cell is enough to give people at the Chinese Academy of Sciences a headache.

Technology, I told you everything.

However, being able to produce something does not necessarily mean it can be industrialized.

The research in this laboratory is completely different from normal production.

And their Seventh Ministry of Machine Building is somewhat similar to the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The control systems required for rockets and missiles must also keep pace with the times, and integrated circuits are the next development goal.

They have already fallen behind, and if they don't catch up, they will have to spend a lot of effort to catch up in the future.

"So, you want to cooperate?"

Mr. Qian understood what Mr. Wang meant and asked.

Old Wang nodded, "I admit that there is a selfish motive here. After all, the Nine Departments are now rich locals, and we poor brothers are all living a hard life. Who wouldn't want to find someone to help us?"

"But I also know that a single flower does not make spring, but a hundred flowers in full bloom make the whole garden full of spring."

"For this reason, it doesn't matter even if our Seventh Machinery Department follows the Ninth Department."

Mr. Wang spoke firmly and without affectation.

He thought about a lot of things, but in the end he was convinced by one goal.

That is, to speed up the pace of revolution and construction and make the country stronger.

Mr. Qian looked at his partner in surprise.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that this partner seems unreliable and likes to take advantage of others.

But even Mr. Huang may not be able to match his pride and persistence.

Over the years, the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building has always wanted to overthrow the First Ministry of Machine Building and become the boss in order to prove itself, and this person was among them.

But now he was able to let go of his pride and was willing to follow Jiu Bu, which really shocked him.

"Old Wang, are you serious?"

"You know, we can also research it ourselves and build it up step by step."

Mr. Qian said with certainty that the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building’s foundation was no worse than that of the Ninth Ministry, and it was even stronger in terms of talent pool.

What is lacking is money and time.

But these will happen sooner or later.

After hearing this, Mr. Wang shook his head and said, "Old Qian, we are one to nine, but we are still brothers."

"Why do we have to make such a clear distinction?"

Hearing this, Mr. Qian was startled, then smiled and shook his head, "Old Wang, you really impressed me."

Mr. Wang laughed and said, "Development is necessary, research is also necessary, but we should clench our fingers into a fist so that we can strike out with power."

"If we disperse our strength, we will be the ones who suffer in the end."

Mr. Qian nodded, and then asked solemnly, "In this case, how do you plan to cooperate?"

Old Wang scratched his head. "I'm not sure yet. I just have an idea. Anyway, they have money and we have people. At worst, we can just cooperate like this."

Hearing this, Qian shook his head and said, "That won't work. You have to have a goal and a focus. Otherwise, it's just a lie and it might all be for nothing."

Mr. Wang also understood that what Mr. Qian said made sense, but for a moment, he didn't know how to cooperate.

"Or, why don't you call Yang Xiaotao and ask him."

Suddenly, Mr. Qian started laughing.

Mr. Wang's eyes widened, and then he clapped his hands, "Yes, he must know how to cooperate."

"Wait, I'll go back and make a phone call."

Department 9, Office.

Yang Xiaotao had just taken the landing gear design drawings and placed them on the table, preparing to conduct the final experiment, when he heard the phone on the table ringing.

Put down the pen and pick up the phone.

"Hello, I'm Yang Xiaotao, who is this?"

"Xiao Yang, I'm your Uncle Wang."

Yang Xiaotao frowned, "Uncle Wang?"

I suddenly became alert. It had only been a short time and the call came. Needless to say, it must be about the 100 million.

"Yeah, I, ah!"

"Ah, Uncle Wang, what are you doing?"

Yang Xiaotao asked tentatively. Wang Lao laughed at the other end of the line, and then he said sincerely, "Xiao Yang, I called you this time just to ask, do you want to cooperate?"
