Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2529 The competition among the nine departments is too fierce
The night fell and was blown away by the cold wind, revealing the pale sunlight that illuminated the sky.

Yang Xiaotao stood in front of the Ninth Ministry office building and looked up at the sun.

Ah sneeze…

“Finally it came out!”

Yang Xiaotao rubbed his nose and walked towards the office.

Be a man, a real man.

You must do what you say.

So last night Yang Xiaotao tried his best to serve his wife well.

Even at the end, I felt that the eight abdominal muscles on my stomach were trembling together...

The result was that I was exposed for too long and caught a cold.

"It's okay, don't worry!"

Feeling Xiaowei's concern, Yang Xiaotao comforted himself in his heart.

Then I went to the office and started my day's work.

After finishing the documents in the morning, Yang Xiaotao drove to the pharmaceutical factory.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao coming again, Bai Jingshu hurriedly entertained him, but Yang Xiaotao took out the islet injection pen he designed and handed it to him.

"This is a portable syringe I designed, called the Islet Injection Pen."

“The purpose is to make it easy to carry and you can register yourself at any time!”

As soon as Yang Xiaotao explained the situation, Bai Jingshu and Wang Zichun looked at it immediately and paid special attention to the design drawings in their hands.

This was designed by Yang Bu himself.

In recent years, everything designed by Yang Xiaotao is extraordinary.

As for the pancreatic islet injection pen in front of them, they understood its benefits just by listening to Yang Xiaotao's explanation of its function.

You don’t have to go to the hospital specifically for injections, which saves you the trouble of seeing a doctor.

Being able to carry it with you means you can get timely medical treatment.

Using a dosage scale can solve the problem of not knowing how to use it.

More importantly, this will be a constant supply for patients' families.

Then what about sales volume, must it not increase exponentially?

When everyone thought of this, they immediately looked at Yang Xiaotao with admiration.

Why didn't they think of this little thing?
"Minister Yang, what are you really thinking?"

Zhao Chuanjun sighed on the side, and Bai Jingshu nodded, "Yes, we have always been thinking about the syringes given by the hospital, but we never thought that it could be done this way!"

"I've learned a lot!"

Everyone was expressing their feelings from the bottom of their hearts, but Yang Xiaotao just smiled when he heard them, without any sense of pride.

After all, he plagiarized it.

Perhaps this is the kind of disregard that is easy to come by.

"Study this thing and make it as soon as possible. If you have any trouble, ask the machinery factory to help make it, especially the needle. You have to be careful."

Yang Xiaotao reminded them, "Don't rush to use it after it's made. This time we need to coordinate with the patent for yellow cattle insulin and try to get it out together."

Bai Jingshu immediately understood what Yang Xiaotao meant.

This scalp insulin cannot be produced abroad, but it does not mean that the insulin injection pen cannot be produced.

This thing is simple, and if you’re not careful, someone else might snatch your registration away.

"Understood. We will change the packaging format and launch them together when the time comes."

Bai Jingshu promised earnestly, his eyes shining.

This time, I must do this well and restore my position in Yang Bu's heart.

After leaving the pharmaceutical factory, Yang Xiaotao returned to his busy and fulfilling work.

three days later.

Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory produced a sample of the islet injection pen.

Yang Xiaotao saw that it looked like a ballpoint pen, so he reached out and picked up the needle beside him to examine it carefully.

"Commander Yang, this needle was made possible thanks to the help of our comrades at the headquarters. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have been able to make it."

Bai Jingshu thanked him on the side, but Yang Xiaotao understood the meaning behind his words and said with a smile, "You want a machine tool, right?"

Bai Jingshu was not shy either, and nodded immediately, "Yes, yes!"

"We will be producing on a large scale in the future, so we can't trouble the comrades at the headquarters research institute every time."

"That's right."

Yang Xiaotao knew that this thing was not easy to process, especially the one millimeter needle, which was not something that ordinary people could make.

"I'll ask Chang Mingjie to allocate two Mercury machine tools to you. As for manpower, you can figure it out on your own."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Bai Jingshu nodded happily, "We have ready-made manpower."

Yang Xiaotao was stunned when he heard it, "Where did it come from?"

Bai Jingshu whispered, "There is a machinery factory in Shicheng with several masters. We invited them over."

"From Shicheng? Which unit?"

After hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, Bai Jingshu carefully pinched his right thumb, index finger and middle finger together.

When Yang Xiaotao saw it, he slapped his forehead and said, "I don't know about this."

Bai Jingshu had heard about Yang Xiaotao's relationship with the Seventh Machine Department, so he assured her, "Understood, these are all our private actions."

"Well, that's fine."

"We need to speed up the production of this islet injection pen, and the packaging equipment must be sterile and harmless. You should discuss this with Lao Xu and make sure it's done well."

"Once the patent is approved, we will directly change the design and launch it. It will be a big hit!"

Bai Jingshu's eyes widened and he nodded continuously, "Don't worry, Chief Yang, by then, not only the domestic supply, but also the Peninsula, Hong Kong, and Malaysia will be supplied at the same time!"

"By then, our Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory will surely be famous both at home and abroad!"

After saying this, he looked as if he was 20 years younger, full of fighting spirit.

Yang Xiaotao nodded and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you."

"By the way, the headquarters will get 80% of the revenue from the islet injection pen this time!"

Bai Jingshu was stunned for a moment, then he thought of something and nodded immediately, "Okay, no problem."

"But, Yang Bu, well..."

Bai Jingshu suddenly became shy, and Yang Xiaotao instinctively took a step back. They were the only two people in the room, what was this old woman doing?

"What is that?"

Bai Jingshu asked carefully, "Minister Yang, you see we have made so many contributions to the Ninth Ministry this year, so what, the commendation at the end of the year..."

"As you know, we were the runner-up last year, but we were overtaken by the steel plant and the R&D department and won the grand prize."

"This year, everyone in our factory is holding back their energy, hoping to prove themselves."

"Minister Yang, please give us a chance."

Yang Xiaotao looked at him strangely and then scratched his head. There was nothing he could do about it.

But now was not the time to talk about this, so he said comfortingly, "The commendation is based on the results."

"Don't worry! You've done a good job this year."

When Bai Jingshu heard this, his eyes narrowed with a smile, as if he had taken a reassurance pill.

At the very least, it won’t be like last year when we ended up with nothing.

There is no way, the nine departments have done too many big things this year.

The Baiju fighter jet, which was produced at the end of last year, made a stunning appearance this year and almost booked the biggest award of the year.

Then there is the Starlight Calculator that started to make a name for itself at the beginning of the year. As soon as it came out, it demonstrated a strong ability to "attract money". Just by going to the Alliance's exhibition area, you can make hundreds of millions of dollars, which is no slower than the money they make from selling medicine.

Next came the high-purity silicon, a high-temperature resistant material developed in the middle of the year. The solar cells made from it are simply unreasonable. We feel roasted when exposed to the sun, but this thing can actually generate electricity when exposed to the sun and can also store it. How can this be compared?
There are also tanks at the end of the year and newly made airplanes.

Which of these is not worse than the insulin from their pharmaceutical companies?
Which one is worse than their pharmaceutical factory?

The secretary gave her a detailed account of the situation over the past two days, and she discovered that their pharmaceutical factory was not the most powerful one among the nine departments!

This made her feel a little panicked.

What's more, there are several projects waiting in line.

This year, the integrated pharmaceutical factories are running at full capacity, not only providing a variety of drugs and earning foreign exchange, but also taking an important step in research.

If you don't seize the opportunity this year, your chances in the future may be even slimmer.

So, this time she had the nerve to ask Yang Xiaotao, because she was really afraid that her work would be in vain.

Bai Jingshu left the office with a satisfactory answer. In the room, Yang Xiaotao was sitting on a chair, rubbing his head and feeling a headache.

It’s only a month away from the Chinese New Year.

Yang Youning, who is organizing the performance, has already started looking for him, asking how many awards will be set up this year and what the rewards are.

After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao wanted to follow last year's model, but was stopped by Li Hongfeng and Liu Huaimin.

It's nothing else, it's just that the Ninth Department has achieved a lot this year. If the reward is too small, it will chill the hearts of the workers.

But if we have to line up to share the fruits, it won’t achieve the purpose of rewarding people.

Rewards are motivations.

If everyone gets the same rewards, who would want to make progress?

But it is really difficult to determine who is better and who should be given the gift and who should not be given the gift.

After all, these research results and even achievements, if they were given to other departments, would definitely be progress awards, excellence awards, or even grand prizes.

But among the nine "monster rooms" that are clustered together, some achievements seem insignificant.

After thinking for a while, Yang Xiaotao only had a tendency. The details still needed to be discussed in a meeting.

At the very least, we should make the worker comrades feel that there is a balance.

On January 15th, Lao Hong returned from Shengjing and brought back good news.

The thirty Desert Eagles independently assembled in Shengjing have passed the test flight acceptance. The representatives sent by Camel are very satisfied with the aircraft and are now arranging for ships to come here.

However, according to the travel time, it will take at least one month to arrive.

By then, Shengjing will be able to build ten to twenty more aircraft. In this way, fifty aircraft can recover 50 million for the nine departments.

In addition, Shengjing has already begun trial production of the complete J-8 fighter.

It is estimated that the prototype will be ready for test flight and acceptance after the new year.

The best news for Yang Xiaotao is that someone is here to share his work.

A week later.

As the end of the month approaches, more and more meetings of the nine departments are being held.

After lunch, Yang Xiaotao was called to the conference room by Li Hongfeng, and everyone closed the door and continued the meeting.

Rubbing
The lighter lit up a flame, and Yang Xiaotao lit a cigarette for Lao Hong who was looking down, and then lit one for himself.

As for Li Hongfeng, Yang Youning and others, they had already started smoking and puffing out clouds of smoke.

"Old Li, tell me the rules."

"The task will be delegated soon. We can't just sit there and let the people below discredit us."

Yang Youning spoke first while smoking a cigarette.

As for why he asked Li Hongfeng instead of Yang Xiaotao, it was because he had attended too many meetings and had become accustomed to it.

What Yang Xiaotao did most in such occasions was to take out cigarettes, distribute them around, and then light them up for people.

Then, he just listened happily on the side.

Li Hongfeng also had a headache when he heard Yang Youning's question. He had no experience in the Spring Festival Gala.

Let him make the decision. It's okay if it's a small event.

But the Ninth Department is so big, and people from all over the world come here. What kind of scene will that be? What if something goes wrong?

"Lao Liu, you guys had experience last year, tell us about it."

Liu Huaimin was being annoyed by the secondhand smoke, so he simply lit up a cigarette himself. He couldn't just sit there passively all the time.

Hearing Li Hongfeng say this, he immediately spoke up, "Xiao Yang said earlier that it would be the same as last year, but we rejected it, right? So, last year's experience won't work, we have to think of more ways."

Li Hongfeng knew there was no solution after hearing him say that, so he looked at Yang Youning again, "Old Yang, you are familiar with this, can you tell me a rule?"

Yang Youning was not surprised. "I still say the same thing. The program is easy to arrange. It can be arranged more or less by then. But the award category needs to be determined. Otherwise, how can we prepare for the follow-up?"

After Yang Youning finished speaking, Lao Hong immediately said, "What Lao Yang said makes sense. We really need to prepare in advance for logistics, so that the publicity department can also cooperate."

After Lao Hong finished speaking, Chen Gong also spoke up, "Yes, yes."

"We can't wait until the end of the year to arrange the promotion, otherwise the opportunity will be lost."

As they talked, the topic finally turned to rewards.

"Xiao Yang, please count, who will get the award this year?"

Yang Youning asked Yang Xiaotao, "It's always like this at every meeting. In the end, nothing happens."

"The New Year is almost here, and it will really delay things if we delay any further."

Yang Xiaotao smiled bitterly while holding his cigarette, "Old Yang, if I really had an idea, would I have waited until now to tell you?"

"The palms and backs of the hands are all made of flesh, and both have performed well. If we have to compare them, who will be convinced?"

After hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, everyone fell silent again.

Chen Gong sighed quietly at the side, "If I had known earlier, I would have arranged it, one per year, so there would be no need to fight for it."

Everyone shook their heads after hearing this. How could such a good thing happen?

"Okay, like this."

Liu Huaimin put out his cigarette and said, "Then let's vote."

"vote?"

Several people looked up immediately, then shook their heads.

"No, this is too casual, no no."

Lao Hong felt that it was inappropriate, but Liu Huaimin didn't care. "Then you tell me what to do."

No one spoke in the room again.

"Oh, this won't work."

Wang Guodong, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up at this moment, "This year is so difficult, what are we going to do next year and the year after next?"

"This institute has produced one good thing after another."

"This factory's products make a lot of money."

"If we don't come up with a charter, we'll have headaches in the future."

In an instant, everyone looked at Wang Guodong.

This scene made Wang Guodong shudder all over, "I, I'm just expressing my thoughts."

Chen Gong, who was standing beside him, slapped Wang Guodong on the shoulder and said, "Okay, Lao Wang, you are really smart but appear foolish."

Wang Guodong shook off his cigarette and said, "What do you mean by great wisdom but appearing foolish? I am just telling the truth."

"Tell the truth? Didn't you tell me the solution?"

Yang Xiaotao's eyes lit up and he said with a smile. Wang Guodong looked suspicious after hearing this. What's the solution?
Did I say that?

At this time, Lao Hong laughed and said, "This is a good direction for research."

"One line for the research institute and another for the factory, two different systems, and different awards are given, not bad, not bad."

Li Hongfeng nodded after hearing this, "This way, we don't have to think so much."

"Let the research institute figure out the value of what they come up with."

At this point, he glanced at Yang Xiaotao and said, "You are the dean, you should find a way to distinguish the first, second and third."

"We just leave it alone."

Yang Xiaotao wanted to open his mouth to protest, but Li Hongfeng said directly to Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin, "As for the situation at the factory, it's simple."

“Either look at the amount of tasks completed or the benefits achieved.”

"Let's get together and see who has performed outstandingly this year."

"As for the outstanding individuals, let the local authorities report them first, and we will review them and keep twenty of them."

Now that they had an idea, Li Hongfeng and Liu Huaimin immediately began to make arrangements.

Everyone stayed in the conference room for half the afternoon. When Yang Xiaotao left, Liu Lixue was choked by the smoke in the room and started coughing.

"Director Yang, Commander Chen just called you and asked you to return his call."

Liu Lixue coughed twice before speaking.

"What's the matter?"

"No, but you sound very happy."

After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao immediately returned to the office.

I picked up the phone and dialed, and soon I heard Mr. Chen's voice.

"Commander, I'm Yang Xiaotao."

"Xiao Tao, I have good news for you. The patent investigation results for Huangniu brand insulin have come out."

"The International Patent Office agreed to give us the production patent for Yellow Bull insulin."

"Once we submit the materials next week, we will have the patent property rights."

Yang Xiaotao was immediately delighted when he heard this and said, "Great, we'll prepare the materials right away."

"By the way, Chief, we also have a set of insulin kits that we would like to apply for a patent for together. I wonder if that is possible."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Mr. Chen covered the phone as if asking someone. After a while, he spoke, "If it is compatible with insulin, there is no problem."

"Okay, okay."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Xiaotao immediately called the pharmaceutical factory.

At the same time, I was thinking that this year's factory grand prize had finally been won.
