Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 222 Model
Zhou Weimin nodded and continued, "I'm just thinking about this at home. Can you guys help me see if it's feasible? Bald Eagle is a capitalist country. To put it bluntly, they will do anything for money. They make toys over there. If they want to make more money, they will definitely think of ways to make those toys more realistic. If you bring some of these toys back, maybe you can take them apart and study them, and maybe you can figure out something. Even if it only has one shape, it's better than knowing nothing. Even if it's useless, it's just spending some money on toys. Let's just think of it as bringing some foreign toys for the children to play with."

Zhou Weimin said this after careful consideration.

When he heard outside the hospital that Tao Sixue could go to the bald eagle, he thought of this matter.

Almost no one knows about it now, but in later generations, the story about the toy model of Bald Eagle's house has long been known to everyone.

At that time, it was because of a submarine model that the research and development of domestic submarines made rapid progress.

At that time, the toy company produced more than just the Nautilus model.

In addition, many toy companies there have backgrounds in military-industrial enterprises, so if you buy a few more, you might get some unexpected surprises.

For a country that is currently short of everything, any gain is enough to save materials for the research and development of projects that might have been suspended due to the shortage of materials.

That's why Zhou Weimin took the risk to express his thoughts in front of this table full of his own people.

This risk is not small. After all, his current identity is just an ordinary person. It is difficult to give a completely reasonable explanation for such thoughts.

"Sixue, please tell me something. Is Weimin's idea feasible? You are the only one among us who has been to the Bald Eagle. You know the situation there best."

When everyone was silent, the first person who couldn't sit still was not Sun Yiwei, but the calm-looking Zhang Hongjiang.

"Based on what I know about that place, what Wei Min said is entirely possible. I am even 80% sure that we can disassemble those exquisitely crafted toys to find useful things for us. However, we have never thought of focusing on toys before. I need to go back and discuss this matter, and try to bring back as many toys as possible that are useful to us."

Looking around at everyone, Tao Sixue hesitated for a moment, then looked at Duan Weihong and said, "Uncle Duan, this matter is of great importance. I think it needs to be reported immediately."

"can."

Duan Weihong knocked on the table, then stood up and said to everyone, "From now on, no one is allowed to leave the yard. Eat when you need to eat, drink when you need to drink, and we'll talk about everything after I come back."

Although there was a telephone in the room, Duan Weihong was very worried about its reliability, fearing that something unexpected might happen.

Since Tao Sixue said he was 80% sure, the nature of this matter was no longer as simple as buying a toy. It had to be kept as confidential as possible and taken seriously, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

His trip could avoid many accidents. After all, as an old man he still had some face, and those old guys would not use their subordinates to get rid of him.

After explaining things to everyone and instructing the security squad to guard the yard and not allow anyone to leave or come in, Duan Weihong drove out by himself.

As soon as Duan Weihong left, everyone in the room fell silent for a moment.

You looked at me, I looked at you, and no one spoke.

A few minutes later, Nan Yi walked in carrying a wooden tray.

Seeing that no one in the room spoke, although he felt strange, he did not dare to ask anything. He quickly put the dishes on the tray on the table and retreated carefully, lowering the sound of his footsteps.

"Hey, why are you all so stern? Look, Master Rennan is so scared that he doesn't even dare to make a sound."

Sun Yiwei picked up the chopsticks and joked with a smile.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the atmosphere in the room became relaxed.

"I was just wondering, why haven't we thought of such a simple thing before?" Tao Sixue said as he stood up, picked up the wine bottle, walked to Zhou Weimin, and prepared to pour wine into the glass.

"Brother Sixue..."

Zhou Weimin blocked Tao Sixue's move, then said with a smile: "You can drink this glass of wine after you come back from the bald eagle."

"Okay, then wait until I come back and drink."

Tao Sixue paused while pouring the wine and smiled brightly.

Wei Min is right. Of course, it is only meaningful to drink a celebratory drink after things are done.

"Hahahaha, what are you looking at? Pour your own wine. Are you expecting Tao Sixue to pour it for you?"

Seeing the two of them being polite to each other, Jiang Ping couldn't help but laugh and asked everyone to pour wine.

Only after Tao Sixue sat down in his seat did everyone raise their glasses and clink their glasses.

After what happened just now, Zhou Weimin was finally able to completely integrate into this circle.

Everyone also treated Zhou Weimin as an equal in communication, instead of treating him as a newcomer who needed care as before.

"Wei Min, it's a waste of your talent to be the canteen director at the steel mill. If you were in our food factory, I wouldn't have to worry about new products."

Tong Shicheng picked up a piece of ginger from the dish and put it into his mouth, chewing it, and looked at Zhou Weimin with a bit of burning eyes.

Compared to other people's sighs, he was more excited about Zhou Weimin's wild ideas.

What their food factory's technical department lacks in new product research and development is not technology, but creativity about food.

In the past few years, their food factory has been tinkering with old products and has not produced any real new products, which is why they saw such a good response.

In everyone's opinion, their new products have no novelty at all. It is safer to buy the old bread than the new one.

As the technical director of a food factory, he has always wanted to break out of the circle of old products, but his knowledge and experience are there, and he always goes back to the old ways.

Now, he saw the possibility he wanted in Zhou Weimin. If he could offer good treatment, he really wanted to bring Zhou Weimin back to their food factory.

"Shicheng, it's okay if Weimin is not at the food factory. Take out the things you brought and show them to Weimin. Maybe Weimin can come up with some ideas for you."

Seeing that Tong Shicheng looked like he wanted to ask for help but didn't want to speak, Jiang Ping started to make a fuss without caring about the severity of the situation.

"That's right, Shicheng, you should be more efficient. We are all family members, so you should be quick when asking people to do things. Why are you so hesitant?"

Sun Yiwei also added fuel to the fire, looking at Tong Shicheng with disdain while speaking.

"You can just say this kind of thing at work. You finally came to Uncle Duan's place, so you don't need to hide it. Don't do this. It's disgusting to hear."

Zhang Hongjiang immediately took over Sun Yiwei's words and took the oil paper bag that Tong Shicheng had placed on the cabinet nearby to the table.
