Siheyuan: Forced to exchange rooms with Qin Huairu at the beginning

"Mr. Alexander, I don't have the right to agree to your request yet, but don't worry, I will submit an application to our leader, and I believe there will be a result that everyone will be satisfied with."

Mr. Wu said politely that we certainly can't be so firm now, what if Zhang Zhiqiang is not able to do it, and can't lead everyone to build locomotives, and still have to rely on foreigners.

"Okay Wu, I'll go and rest first. I look forward to your good news."

Alexander felt uncomfortable staying here, so he put on his hat and prepared to go back to his room.

Everyone watched Alexander leave the meeting room, and many people showed mocking expressions on their faces. They didn't expect that we also have capable people.

"Quiet."

Many people were about to ask Zhang Zhiqiang questions, but were stopped by Mr. Wu.

"Let's adjourn the meeting first. Zhang Zhiqiang will stay for a while."

After saying this, Mr. Wu waved his hand and asked everyone to leave.

Although everyone didn't understand, they still stood up and went out. After they went out, they didn't leave. If Zhang Zhiqiang didn't explain it well today, it would be difficult to let him go.

"Zhang Zhiqiang, shouldn't you explain it to me?"

Old Wu sat in his seat and said to Zhang Zhiqiang with a smile.

At the beginning, he admired Zhang Zhiqiang very much and thought that this young man was good, had his own understanding of design, and had a bright future.

"Mr. Wu, I......"

Zhang Zhiqiang said awkwardly, how can he explain this? Did he have a dream last night? An old man with a white beard slapped him on the head and said that he was a rare genius in building locomotives in a century, and then he woke up and could do it?

He actually wanted to say that, but he had to make Mr. Wu believe it.

Fortunately, Mr. Wu did not make things difficult for Zhang Zhiqiang and spoke again before Zhang Zhiqiang could open his mouth.

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else. Are you really sure, or are you just doing it for fun?"

"You have to give me an honest account. If you are capable, take up the responsibility. If not, I will go and explain to the foreigners."

Old Wu said seriously that it was obvious that the foreigners were unhappy because of Zhang Zhiqiang. If Zhang Zhiqiang was not capable, the foreigners would definitely ask for a huge amount, and no one could predict how much they would ask for.

But at least there is room for maneuver. Otherwise, if you put your words on hold, it will be more troublesome if the other person leaves.

"Mr. Wu, since you said that, I'll also express my opinion. I have some confidence in building a locomotive. There is absolutely no problem in theory. As for the practical problems, I think we have so many talented people and we can definitely overcome them by pooling our wisdom."

Seeing Mr. Wu’s serious expression, Zhang Zhiqiang also spoke firmly.

…………

"Look, that's the engineer the factory invited from abroad. I heard he's a Russian."

"Really? He is really tall, but it must have cost a lot of money, right?"

"Of course. Every time these foreigners come, they have to spend money. Not to mention anything else, they can get a lot of money even if they just repair a machine. I think it will cost more to build a locomotive."

"Is this true? How much would that cost?"

"I don't know, probably about the equivalent of ten years' salary."

"Hiss~ I really envy them for being able to make so much money."

…………

Alexander saw that the workers outside were looking at him like a monkey and talking about him, and that he could understand Chinese, so he walked faster.

Liu Haizhong did not participate in their conversation, but looked at the foreign engineers with longing.

He had heard the conversation just now. Ten years' salary, to him, should be equivalent to five years' salary.

To be honest, Liu Haixin was very jealous that he could take away so much money in such a short time.

But doesn’t this just reflect how powerful foreign engineers are?

Liu Haizhong also saw it some time ago. There were a group of experts, scholars and engineers who said they were here to build a locomotive. But a foreigner came before they even started.

What does this show? It shows that those people are not good enough and cannot build a locomotive. Otherwise, why do they need to find foreigners? It looks very glorious on the surface, but at this critical moment, they still have to rely on foreigners?

Liu Hai's mind became active again. His director actually didn't allow him to participate in the construction of the locomotive. Who was he? He was a seventh-level blacksmith. If he couldn't build a train, could he not also do ironwork?

The director was afraid that he would become a high-ranking official in the future and surpass him.

The factory manager is useless. I've reported the problem to him, but he still hasn't dealt with it. I'm afraid he has forgotten about it.

But Liu Haizhong didn't dare to say anything to the factory director. After all, when he became an official in the future, he would still have to rely on Director Yang for promotion.

This foreigner is so powerful. If I could curry favor with him, wouldn't it be easy for me to participate in the construction of the locomotive?

If he could help put in a few good words in front of the factory director, it would not be impossible for him to be promoted to an official position. Liu Haizhong forced himself to calm down and think of a way to get in touch with this foreigner.

in the afternoon.

Mr. Wu took Zhang Zhiqiang and left.

At noon, Mr. Wu called his superiors to report and told them about the unreasonable behavior of the foreign engineers.

Then he told the leader about Zhang Zhiqiang's situation and suggested that Zhang Zhiqiang lead the team and independently complete the work of building the locomotive.

The leader didn't dare to make a decision easily on such a big matter, but he felt angry when he heard what the foreigners said.

They can't control you if you work three hours a day, which means that if you don't go to work, no one can say anything to you?

After some hesitation, the leader asked Mr. Wu to bring Zhang Zhiqiang over, and he also found a few people who were knowledgeable in this area to listen.

If there are no problems, complete the construction of the locomotive independently.

When he arrived at the place, Zhang Zhiqiang was still a little nervous.

Mr. Wu’s rank is already high enough. He has never seen a leader higher than Mr. Wu’s rank.

"Let's go, the leaders should be in the conference room."

Mr. Wu took Zhang Zhiqiang directly there, and the time and place were agreed upon over the phone.

…………

"Leaders, this is technician Zhang Zhiqiang. Although he is young, he knows a lot. I think he can lead the team to complete the construction of the locomotive."

Mr. Wu introduced Zhang Zhiqiang to the leaders and experts.

"Hello, leaders. I am Zhang Zhiqiang."

Zhang Zhiqiang greeted with a smile, and when he stood here he found that he was not so nervous anymore. He still had to perform well so that the leader would agree to complete the locomotive construction task independently.

"Well, Technician Zhang, let's get started. You only have one hour to present your theory."

The leader nodded and said nothing about Zhang Zhiqiang's youth.

Our country is vast and rich in resources, and there are always some geniuses every year. Especially as a leader, he has seen many of them.

"Good leadership."

When it comes to his professional field, Zhang Zhiqiang becomes more confident. He stands in front with a piece of chalk in his hand and talks eloquently, refreshing the cognition of the experts below with new ideas from time to time.
