The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 161, Pregnancy! Contract! (Seeking monthly ticket)
April 15, 1980, Shancheng 749th Bureau.

Lei Daqing was in the office, pacing back and forth anxiously.

It was unknown how much time had passed, but the telegraph department finally received the radio signal, which was quickly translated by the telegraph interpreter.

"How is it? What's the result? Did they catch him?"

Qiu Qicheng also stood up and stared at the telegraph interpreter.

"Director, please look, they've caught him."

hum!
The results are positive, very good!

Lei Daqing took the telegram and read it carefully several times before handing it to Qiu Qicheng next to him.

Lei Daqing laughed happily:

"Great, that's great! The enemy has finally been caught. The higher-ups said a leader will come to inspect us tomorrow. You all need to pay attention then."

The leaders came to the 749th Bureau with only one purpose, which was to give them rewards as encouragement.

This time, the 'Rainbow Code' is indeed extraordinary.

Although it was not the 749th game that cracked it, the 749th game also played a significant role in it. The higher-ups are not blind, so of course they can see it.

Qiu Qicheng had also finished reading the contents of the telegram and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

"Director, we were able to crack the code this time thanks to Professor Wang's help. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid we would have suffered heavy losses this time. What do you think, should we..."

After hearing what Qiu Qicheng said, Lei Daqing pondered for a moment, but shook his head and refused.

"Don't worry about it. I'll handle it myself, and my boss will probably help me when the time comes, so we don't need to worry too much."

Wang Duoyu, whom the two were discussing, appeared in the capital at this time.

Wang Duoyu followed Li Rui into the office of the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building and remained silent after sitting down.

After waiting for less than two minutes, Fang Lihe appeared.

"Old Li, you finally brought our great hero here."

Fang Lihe was very enthusiastic and shook Wang Duoyu's hand gently, greeting him in a friendly and casual manner.

After chatting about some family matters, Fang Lihe looked at Li Rui and said:

"Old Li, you don't know this. I just learned from the leadership yesterday that our Comrade Duoyu had done such a big thing without saying a word. According to the 749th Bureau and several other units, if it weren't for Comrade Duoyu's help, we would have lost at least 200 million US dollars this time."

"So, the leader will come over to meet Comrade Duoyu in person later."

"By the way, Lao Li, does Duoyu still not have any guards?"

Li Rui opened his mouth when he heard this, but finally shook his head.

Wang Duoyu is an associate professor at Harbin Institute of Technology. Why does he have a bodyguard?
He usually stays at school, so there is no need to worry too much about his safety.

"I'm not saying anything bad about you, Old Li, but your safety awareness isn't very good. Comrade Duoyu is very important right now."

Without waiting for Fang Lihe to finish, Wang Duoyu could not help but want to speak. Of course, Fang Lihe saw it, so he stopped and let Wang Duoyu express his opinion.

"Boss, I don't actually need a guard. Or at least not yet. And I hope as few people as possible know about my assistance to Bureau 749. Only then can they truly protect me."

He had to interrupt Fang Lihe's spellcasting because if he was really given some guards, it would be a serious matter.

In a month or two, he will leave for the United States to give a report.

This matter has been decided. It was back in March when Chen Shiing-Shen informed his superiors, who then passed the notice to Harbin Institute of Technology, and then notified Wang Duoyu.

Therefore, at this stage, he is just a top mathematician with decent mathematical theory research, nothing more.

If he got involved in the code-breaking task, it wouldn't be so simple.

Information security is no small matter. Many countries still have code-breaking agencies. So once the Americans know that he has such a cooperative relationship with Bureau 749, it would be really dangerous for him to go to the United States.

"Comrade Duoyu, rest assured. Your file is highly confidential. You don't need to worry about this. Aside from those who should know about your collaboration with Bureau 749, no one else knows about this."

Upon hearing this, Fang Lihe smiled and promised.

Wang Duoyu nodded. If that was the case, it would be a good thing.

But he definitely wouldn't accept a guard or anything like that, and he wouldn't even accept a car or something.

In fact, no matter he is in Beijing or Ice City, he can "borrow" a car, so there is no need to allocate a car, because there is no need for such a nominal allocation of a car, as long as he can use the car, that's enough.

After hearing what Wang Duoyu said, Fang Lihe did not continue the topic. Besides, at this time, the leaders above were about to arrive.

When the leader arrives, some politeness is inevitable.

Because the leader was in a hurry, he stayed for less than ten minutes and then left in a hurry.

However, the leader rewarded Wang Duoyu, not only verbal encouragement, but also material and honorary rewards, a second-class medal of merit, a cash reward of 500 yuan and five pens.

These three pens are all Hero 100 gold pens, and Wang Duoyu has received this type of pen before.

The classic fountain pens produced by Shanghai Hero Fountain Pen Factory have been selected as high-quality products many times and can be seen on many important occasions.

I don’t know who told the leader that Wang Duoyu’s previous Hero 100 gold pen was broken and could no longer be used after being repaired.

It’s just because Wang Duoyu uses it frequently and treats it as an ordinary pen. No matter how good its quality is, it can’t withstand such high-intensity usage.

Take the last time, for example, when Wang Duoyu was deciphering the "Rainbow Code" in Liu Deben's office, he broke five ordinary pens in just one day.

This shows that he uses a pen very frequently.

If the Hero 100 Gold Pen was not too expensive and difficult to produce, the leader might have directly rewarded Wang Duoyu with ten or even fifty pens of this type.

After receiving the award, Wang Duoyu stayed in Director Fang’s office for more than half an hour before being invited to the canteen of the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building for lunch.

The food in the cafeteria of the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building is really delicious. The chef must be at the level of an imperial chef, right?
Anyway, the taste of the food was very much to Wang Duoyu's liking, and he couldn't help but eat an extra bowl of rice.

When Li Rui eats here, he chats with leaders like Fang Lihe. He is nothing like Wang Duoyu, who just concentrates on eating, making leaders like Fang Lihe laugh out loud.

"Old Li, your Harbin Institute of Technology has been doing really well recently. If that Diao Pai company really gets off the ground, its future is limitless. And those four projects you applied for earlier, if you can achieve some success, it would bring great honor to our Seventh Ministry of Machine Building."

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Fang Li and the leader next to him, Wu Guozhong, said with a smile:

"Right now, the higher-ups are fully committed to promoting economic development and accelerating the reform and opening-up policy. Your actions at Harbin Institute of Technology, especially the Diao Pai Company, have been designated as a key target of attention. If your annual revenue exceeds 50 million US dollars in foreign exchange, then perhaps Harbin Institute of Technology will receive even more support from above."

"To be honest, Lao Fang and I both hope that Harbin Institute of Technology can calm down and continue to create greater success."

After Wu Guozhong finished speaking, Li Rui immediately said solemnly that Harbin Institute of Technology will definitely not let down the leaders' expectations and will continue to work hard.

Wang Duoyu continued eating, pretending not to hear.

No matter how great Harbin Institute of Technology is, it is just a university.

From the current perspective, the success of Diao Pai Company is only temporary. With the successive investment and construction of more than 1,100 medium and large-scale projects this year, and the completion of the fertilizer plants mentioned in the 43rd Plan, Diao Pai Company's position above will no longer be important.

Unless Diao Pai Company can really achieve foreign exchange income of more than 50 million US dollars, otherwise, at most it will only attract the attention of the leaders above.

However, in Wang Duoyu's opinion, what should be developed next is not these, but other aspects.

For example, personal computers, mobile phones, PHS, landline phones and other products are the big money-makers.

However, in order to develop these high-tech products, the requirements for scientific researchers are very high, and the requirements for technical workers in production are even higher.

There is no need to rush now, because there is no point in rushing, there is no one available.

After dinner, Wang Duoyu and Li Rui left the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building.

At No. 6 Xila Hutong, Wang Duoyu returned home and Zhu Ling told him the good news: she was pregnant.

"You're pregnant? How long?"

Wang Duoyu looked at her in surprise. He didn't expect that she was pregnant so soon.

The last time they had sex was in March. If it was the last time, then it was normal.

"It's been more than five weeks." Zhu Ling's tone was very gentle, and her temperament had changed a lot from before:

"I only found out two days ago. My mother and I were visiting Professor Ji's home. The professor immediately noticed something was wrong with my body, so he took my pulse and confirmed that I was pregnant."

"That's a good thing. Your parents have been talking about it. During the Spring Festival, you and your daughter had a fight."

When Zhu Ling heard Wang Duoyu mention this, her expression suddenly froze:
"Stop being a good kid here. Are you satisfied now?"

"Now you are pregnant, you are the eldest, I dare not quarrel with you"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ling rolled her eyes and said unhappily:
"It's fine if you don't mention this, but it makes me angry. Ever since I married you, my status in the family has plummeted. My mother and I have never had a cold war like that during the Spring Festival, and it's all because of you."

This is indeed the case. Before marriage, Zhu Ling was her parents' treasure at home, but after marriage, Zhu Ling's status was obviously far lower than Wang Duoyu.

I don’t know if it’s because Wang Duoyu has no parents or because of his status, but Fang Zhen and Zhu Qizhen treat Wang Duoyu better than their own son.

After hearing her complaints, Wang Duoyu could only listen patiently, smiling and not refute.

A pregnant wife is more difficult to deal with than a pig during the Chinese New Year. It is impossible to control her, so you can only coax her.

Wang Duoyu is not sure whether pregnancy will make a woman stupid for three years, after all, Zhu Ling is still very smart.

The next day, Wang Duoyu went to "Beijing Literature and Art", and old lady Zhou Yanru urged him to write again.

In response to this, Wang Duoyu said that he would try his best to find time to write some odd manuscripts, but as for novels, he was afraid that he would not be able to do so this year.

After staying for more than half an hour, Wang Duoyu took away nearly four sacks of letters from readers.

"It's so annoying, I have to open the letter every time!"

After returning to No. 87, Zhongguancun West Street, Wang Duoyu had to start opening the letter.

The speed of opening the letter this time was obviously faster than the previous times.

I don’t know if it really doesn’t matter.

But around ten o'clock in the morning, as he was opening the letters, one of them scared him because it was a red letter.

"Does it smell like blood?"

The letter was not written with a red pen, but with blood. Even though it had dried and hardened, one could still smell the unpleasant smell of blood.

Wang Duoyu took a look at the letter and his eyes widened immediately. Oh my god, there is such a thing?
This is a letter asking for help. The writer is an educated young man named Shi Xiaofeng.

Shi Xiaofeng took the college entrance examination in 1977, 1978 and 1979, but failed every time.

However, three classmates from the same county who took the exam with him were admitted to universities in the same three years.

At first, Shi Xiaofeng thought it was his own problem and that he couldn’t blame others for not doing well in the exam.

But last year, that is, in 1979, he had already prepared for a long time, participated in the previous two college entrance examinations, and thought he had done very well.

However, he was not admitted.

He was very angry and went to the local education bureau, but unfortunately he had no place to complain and his leg was broken by someone who beat him.

From last summer till now, he has tried many methods, but all his hopes were extinguished by those people who had the final say.

The reason why he was able to successfully send the letter this time was because those people were careless and did not realize that he was not writing directly to the higher authorities and was not sending the letter from the local county town.

Instead, he asked someone to go to the next county to mail the letter on his behalf, and he also asked a famous writer like Wang Duoyu for help.

Only in this way can it be avoided.

In this letter, Shi Xiaofeng talked a lot about those local people who were all-powerful and wieldy, and asked Wang Duoyu not to confront them head-on.

After reading the letter, Wang Duoyu almost laughed out of anger.

How could such a ridiculous thing happen?
However, in a border county, such a thing is indeed possible.

Wang Duoyu immediately put the letter away, tidied up the room, and then got up and went out.

He found Li Rui and told him about this.

When Li Rui learned about this, he was shocked.

"How could such a thing happen?"

Wang Duoyu shook his head and said:

"Perhaps there are many such cases across the country. Secretary Li, I'm sorry to trouble you with this matter."

With Li Rui's qualifications, he is more suitable to handle this matter than Wang Duoyu.

Moreover, Li Rui also knows more leaders, so if he follows up personally, he will definitely be able to rescue Shi Xiaofeng.

But we must pay attention to the methods and approaches, otherwise, if those people do something and make things worse, it will be troublesome.

In this day and age, the death of one or two people will definitely not cause any big commotion.

In fact, even in that era in later generations, there were many people who died accidentally every year, but there were not many cases that really received attention or major cases that were solved.

"Don't worry, I will definitely arrange it."

After saying goodbye to Li Rui, Wang Duoyu returned to Zhongguancun West Street and continued to open letters.

After he opened those letters, he looked at other letters. These letters were the letters he had stored here before. Maybe something happened to someone here too?
However, there were so many letters that he alone could not help.

So Wang Duoyu had no choice but to find someone to help.

Who is suitable?

In fact, the best way is to go to the police station, but the police station itself has a lot of work to deal with, and who has the time to read these letters?

But apart from the police station, it seems that no one else can help.

And there are many sacks of letters. Just checking these letters can drive people crazy.

Forget it, let’s talk about it next time.

Wang Duoyu was very troubled and could only pray secretly that these letters were from normal readers and not requests for help.

He's not a policeman, so he really can't help that much.

In the evening, Wang Duoyu brought Zhu Ling to Beijing Institute of Technology and had dinner with the old Zhu couple.

This time when we had dinner at my father-in-law's house, the atmosphere was much more harmonious than the time before the Spring Festival.

During the meal, Fang Zhen suggested that she would go to No. 6 Courtyard, Xila Hutong to live with her daughter in a while.

There is no overnight hatred between mother and daughter. Wang Duoyu has no objection to this. It mainly depends on Zhu Ling's opinion.

What's more, one thousand yuan of the money for purchasing No. 6 Xila Hutong was paid by Lao Zhu, and Wang Duoyu has not yet paid back this money.

In fact, Wang Duoyu has money and can pay it back. After all, he received a cash reward of 500 yuan from his leader yesterday.

But Lao Zhu said that this money should be regarded as support for the young couple, a blessing, and it does not need to be repaid.

Mr. Zhu has a high salary, so of course he doesn't care much about the money. He cares more about the smooth relationship between Wang Duoyu and Zhu Ling.

Zhu Ling did not refuse because that was her mother and she was pregnant. Although she was not obviously pregnant yet, she was indeed a little panicked.

After all, this is my first experience in life, and I feel very wonderful.

The next day, Wang Duoyu didn't return to Ice City, but stayed here. He was only in Beijing for the weekend, so he didn't have much time off because he still had to teach his classmates and move forward with the distributed computing project.

But Zhu Ling was pregnant after all, so he couldn't come and leave in such a hurry.

However, he still had to return to Harbin Institute of Technology the next day, after all, the work there was quite important.

Zhu Ling expressed her understanding, but after Wang Duoyu left, she still couldn't help missing him and feeling sad.

People are so strange. When he is around, I find him annoying and a bit of an eyesore.

However, he just left and he missed the other person again. How despicable.

Going back half a month ago, in early April, a batch of batteries from the Ice City crossed the ocean and finally arrived at the Canadian port smoothly.

"Alessandro, are the batteries from the great country in the far east really that good? Are they better than those from Mile and Gates?"

Bain Cruz, a vice president of Canadian Power Company, picked up one of the batteries and asked curiously.

Alexandro Dickinson, a technical expert, laughed and said:
"Bane, you'll see it soon, won't you?"

Upon hearing this, Baincruz fell silent.

In the past, their company had always used batteries from Mile or Gates, but this time, after Alexander Dickinson went to China, he spent a lot of money to purchase a batch of batteries from China.

In Alexander Dickinson's opinion, this batch of batteries is enough to beat the two giants, Mile and Gates, both in terms of price and product quality.

The price of Mile's lead-acid batteries of the same specifications is outrageous, costing US$180. The price of Gates' products is also almost the same.

However, Diao Pai Company only charges $85, and the price difference between the two is $95, which is a huge gap.

Price alone was enough to persuade Alexander Dickinson to favor the Diao brand.

Soon, the Diao Pai Company's battery was installed and the machine began trial operation without any problems.

Half a day later, more than 95 percent of the test items had been completed, and all the items that had been completed so far had a 100 percent pass rate.

Baincruz immediately lost his temper and admitted that he had underestimated the technology of the Eastern power.

"But I still can't believe it. How could their country possibly develop such technology?"

Hearing Bain Cruz's words, Alexandro Dickinson immediately said:
"I can't believe it either, but that doesn't stop us from using better products, right? Our costs have been reduced, and that's profit. As long as there's money to be made, whether we believe it or not, it won't change the facts."

"Now that these products are so good, I have to find Diao Pai Company to sign a new order contract. Otherwise, once our competitors find out, our advantage will be gone."

As soon as these words were spoken, Bain Cruz immediately stated that he must monopolize the production of the Diao Pai company and not let the other party's products flow into the hands of other competing companies.

Competition in the industry is very fierce, and Diao Pai's batteries can significantly reduce the price of their power company's products, so this advantage must be maintained.

So, an internal meeting was quickly launched, and after the meeting, Alexander Dickinson led the team to the Chinese Ice City.

On the other side, in the city of Tokyo, at the Mitsubishi Motors headquarters office building, all the major executives in the conference room dared not breathe.

Because Diao Pai's battery products have already appeared in several major competitor companies such as Nissan Motor.

Although Mitsubishi Motors realized the problem later and went to Diao Pai Company to purchase batteries, the result was obvious: they could not get any.

The reason given by Diao Pai Company is very simple: out of stock!

There is indeed no stock. Many companies in the automobile and other related industries in Canada, the United States, Japan, Great Britain and other countries have come to order batteries. Diao Pai Company currently only has the second phase factory. How can it possibly complete the supply?
Since there is no stock, Mitsubishi Motors can only watch helplessly.

"Baga, I don't care what method you use, you must solve this problem. If our products are unsaleable, you will all be held responsible!"

The first level of officialdom crushes people to death!

As the boss of Mitsubishi Motors, since he said so, the other subordinates could only nod in response.

Otherwise, what else can be done?

Bingcheng, Diaopai Company next to Harbin Institute of Technology, Phase II factory.

A new group of workers were recruited in early April. After more than half a month of training, we have started working in three shifts. People can rest, but the machines cannot.

The new workers are not very skilled, so the old ones are responsible for guiding the new ones from the beginning.

And on the other side of the factory, training for a new batch of workers has also begun.

Zhang Jichuan never thought that he, as the factory director, would be so busy.

Good news coming back from abroad continues.

Now Diao Pai Company owes foreigners orders for batteries exceeding 100,000 units. If it does not continue to expand its production line, it will not be able to complete these orders within this year.

Therefore, the fourth phase of the factory was not built. Instead, they found a nearby factory building that was not in use temporarily, renovated it temporarily, and then transported the machines over. After the adjustment was completed, production began.

The construction of the fifth phase of the factory building has also begun, directly on the outskirts of Ice City, with an investment of 20 million RMB to build a large factory.

Otherwise, it won’t be enough.

There has been a lot of good news since the beginning of this year, and the construction of the factory must be arranged as soon as possible. Otherwise, by November, there will be no way to build the factory.

20 million to build a factory is indeed an exaggeration, but it is the fact.

Battery products are already selling well overseas, and electric bicycles are about to complete their final road tests, at which time more production lines will need to be built.

Bingcheng has introduced several factories: plastic factories, bicycle parts factories, etc., all of which are prepared for Diao Pai Electric Bicycle Company.

In addition to the most critical motor, battery and electronic control system, an electric bicycle also needs tires, a small cargo basket, handlebars, brake accessories, etc.

If you want to reduce costs, there is actually no problem in letting Diao Pai produce these accessories itself.

But Wang Duoyu suggested that they only need to focus on the three major components: motors, batteries and electronic control systems, and leave some room for others.

The large enterprise model that has been popular since the 1950s means that a company not only owns its own hospitals, schools, etc., but also owns the upstream and downstream industrial chains of the company. It can almost be said that a large factory is an economic kingdom.

But we definitely can’t do that anymore.

Anyway, Harbin Institute of Technology does not need such a large enterprise. It is enough to maintain its own scientific research strength.

If you want everything, you will most likely end up with a problem that is too big to handle and will be even more difficult to deal with.

In the principal's office, Wang Duoyu was notified again to come for a meeting.

After he returned from the capital, he had been working for less than three days when he was called to a meeting.

Zhang Jichuan was the first to report on the current situation of Diao Pai Company and summarized two points: First, there are too many battery orders and production efficiency is low. How should this problem be solved?

The construction of the fifth phase of the factory has just started, and distant water cannot put out the immediate fire. Many battery orders are from foreign companies and are very urgent. If we cannot deliver on time and in quality, compensation will be required.

Second, they received a delegation from a Canadian company yesterday. They proposed a cooperation agreement. Would you like to discuss whether to agree to it?

The most critical part of this cooperation agreement is that this company will give Diao Pai an order for one million batteries every year, but there is only one requirement, that is, Diao Pai's battery orders can only be supplied to their Canadian company, and no other companies in the same industry can be supplied.

After hearing this, Han Jue and others chose to ignore the subsequent terms and wanted to agree to it.

Because of the order for one million batteries, the temptation is immediately overwhelming.

Everyone knows exactly what this means: it's $85 million in foreign exchange earnings a year.

Li Rui and Liu Deben did not express their opinions, while experts such as Fan Baojiang believed that such a cooperation agreement should not be signed.

The reason is very simple. If something ridiculous happens later, it is very likely that this clause will cause trouble.

"Professor Wang, what do you think?"

Seeing that Wang Duoyu had been sitting there without saying anything, Li Rui immediately spoke up, wanting to hear his opinion.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Wang Duoyu.

"Secretary, this is what I'm thinking: Why would a Canadian company make such a request? They're simply afraid of their competitors, so they make such an unreasonable request."

Wang Duoyu said with a smile:

"We completely ignore such contracts. Although an order for one million batteries is very tempting, our factory simply does not have the production capacity to do so. Even if we speed up the training of our workers, it will take several months at the latest to reach this production capacity."

"We are not a company that specializes in producing batteries. We also have electric bicycles, and batteries can be used in other fields."

"Also, as far as I know, there are many foreign brands of batteries that are not cheap, right?"

"Our product costs $85 per unit, but overseas it seems to be over $100 per unit, much more expensive than ours. So who knows what the Canadian company is planning?"

Now that things have come to this, if everyone in the conference room still doesn't understand, then they are really stupid.

Han Jue and the other group of people who had just supported the signing of the contract now had red faces and lowered their heads in embarrassment without saying a word.

Fan Baojiang and others breathed a sigh of relief. They were engaged in technology research and development. Although they did not understand business competition very well, they instinctively felt that such terms were not good.

If it were any other company, it would probably be overwhelmed by the order for one million batteries per year and would agree to it directly.

In fact, Wang Duoyu also knew that even if he agreed, nothing would go wrong.

But he just didn't want foreigners to be the boss. People like Han Jue might not know that the Canadian company wanted to make Diao Pai Company kneel down, but Wang Duoyu could see it.

Being rich doesn't mean you're awesome. At present, the batteries produced by Diao Pai Company are enough to beat many foreign companies because they can stand on equal footing with those capitals.

"That's a great idea. Yes, I think that's the way to go."

Li Rui was the first to speak in agreement, and Liu Deben followed suit. Applause suddenly broke out in the conference room.

Thus, the second question raised by Zhang Jichuan was solved.

But the first problem has not been solved yet.

Everyone put forward many different suggestions, such as continuing to recruit people and expand production capacity, or building branches in Beijing or Shanghai, because these two big cities have many unemployed educated youth and these human resources can be reasonably utilized.

Although there are many educated youth in Bingcheng, there are almost no technical talents. Instead, there are quite a few educated youth who are just trying to get by.

Wang Duoyu did not comment on this suggestion.

Even when Secretary Li Rui called him, he just said it was up to the leader and he had no good suggestions.

In fact, can the professors at Harbin Institute of Technology really not think of a way to improve production efficiency?

You have to know that Harbin Institute of Technology is a university of science and engineering, and there are too many talented people in this field.

If Harbin Institute of Technology wants to develop, both Li Rui and Liu Deben know that talent is the most indispensable.

Now that Diao Pai Company is so powerful, it can just acquire land in Bingcheng and then recruit workers from all over the country.

There is no need to build a branch factory in places like Beijing or Shanghai. This is purely asking for trouble.

However, those who opposed building a branch factory in Beijing Shanghai were refuted by those who supported building a branch factory in Beijing Shanghai: the cost issue.

Because we are building a larger factory in Ice City and recruiting workers from Beijing and Shanghai, how do we solve the accommodation problem?

There are also transportation costs, etc., which are all costs.

On the other hand, if Diao Pai Company goes to Beijing or Shanghai to recruit, what if not many people are willing to come?

After all, the Ice City is located in the north of my country and is very cold in winter. Just like the ancient exile to Ningguta, many southerners are still very reluctant to leave their hometown.

So on the whole, it would be better to build branches in Shanghai and other places.

In the conference room, both sides held their own opinions and argued loudly, which was very lively.

Wang Duoyu was just watching the show and not taking it seriously at all.

In the end, Li Rui gave Liu Deben a look, and the latter stood up and asked everyone to calm down.

Building a branch factory is definitely not an option. What is most needed right now is to arrange a few more usable factory buildings, speed up the introduction of production equipment, and deal with the current production difficulties first.

The matter came to an end after Liu Deben's final "verdict".

The meeting ended and Wang Duoyu got up and left.

Liu Deben stood up and called him, then took him to the next office to discuss the matter in detail.

"Duoyu, you mentioned earlier that the distributed computing project was being rapidly advanced. I wonder what stage it's at now?"

It is already late April and May is almost here.

In July, Wang Duoyu was about to go to the United States to give a report, but in the past period of time, Wang Duoyu had hardly made any preparations, and his daily work schedule was still very full.

In addition, he had to give lectures to his classmates every night. Although he was talking about the three-dimensional Poincare conjecture, it was completely different from giving a report.

Therefore, Liu Deben is still very worried that Wang Duoyu now has too much work, which will affect his lecture in the United States and even make him look bad, which would be very embarrassing.

"It's already reached 67 percent. It should be finished by mid-to-early May."

Wang Duoyu responded, and Liu Deben continued:
"I heard from Team Leader Niu about the optical disk storage project you mentioned earlier. It's progressing rather slowly right now."

The CD storage project was established last month. The Beijing government quickly approved the project and it is currently under the charge of Niu Ruishan and others.

Together with this project, there are three other projects including radar and director. The total R&D funds for the four projects are as high as 25 million yuan.

Liu Deben is still very worried about these things, because although there is no pressure from above, as a parent of Harbin Institute of Technology, who will care if he does not follow up?

If Harbin Institute of Technology wants to compete with top universities such as Tsinghua University and Peking University, it must make great progress in all aspects and take a leading position in many aspects.

"Yeah, it will be a little slower. There's nothing I can do about it. I need to finish the distributed computing project first so I can have the time and energy to move on to the next one."

Wang Duoyu nodded decisively:

"If optical disk storage can be developed before the distributed computer project is completed, that would be best, but if not, that's fine too, we can update it later."

Seeing that Wang Duoyu had talked so much, Liu Deben reminded him again about the July report meeting in the United States, and then he let Wang Duoyu go back.

In the blink of an eye, it is the end of April and tomorrow is May 1st.

It was almost the holiday, but on this day, some good news came.

Xue Xiaoling actually received another letter from the American mathematics journal "Acta Mathematica Sinica" notifying her that her second paper will soon be published in the new issue of the magazine.

The news quickly spread throughout Harbin Institute of Technology, and all the teachers and students in the school were shocked.

Many people regretted it and thought that they should have persisted even if they were just auditing the class.

In the afternoon, Li Rui and Liu Deben went to the teaching building of the Department of Computational Mathematics to consult Wu Congxin, Wang Duoyu, Liu Taoshun and others: Should Xue Xiaoling graduate early?
The two patriarchs valued Wang Duoyu's opinions more. Wu Congxin and Liu Taoshun also understood this, so they let Wang Duoyu express his opinions.

After all, the reason why Xue Xiaoling was able to publish a paper in November last year and April this year was all thanks to Wang Duoyu's guidance.

Whether it was Wu Congxin or other teachers in the Department of Computational Mathematics, the help they provided to Xue Xiaoling was almost negligible.

"can!"

Wang Duoyu nodded and said that there was no problem and that Xue Xiaoling could graduate early.

Then, Li Rui and others raised another question: After graduation, whose master's degree should Xue Xiaoling study?
Wu Congqin opened his mouth. He really wanted this student, but he couldn't compete with Wang Duoyu.

Although the latter has not obtained a master's or doctoral degree, he is now an associate professor in the Department of Computational Mathematics at Harbin Institute of Technology, so he is certainly qualified to accept students.

If Wu Congxin wanted to compete with Wang Duoyu for Xue Xiaoling, he would definitely lose.

Liu Taoshun sat there watching the show with a smile on his face. Director Wu's constantly moving eyes betrayed his inner thoughts.

Only Wang Duoyu sat there quietly, as if he had no idea about Xue Xiaoling, the outstanding graduate.

After looking at Wu Congqin, Wang Duoyu wanted to laugh, but he had to hold it back, no matter how funny it was.
