1959: Carrying the achievement system, she rolled

"We are all family, it would be too polite to say thank you!" Director Song looked at Du Yimeng with more satisfaction. He liked dealing with smart people.

Especially for smart people who understand the ways of the world, when dealing with such people, you only need to give them a gentle hint and they will understand what you mean.

Unlike Lao Qin, who is a blockhead and won't listen no matter how hard he tries!

"Yes, we are family!" Du Yimeng immediately nodded in agreement. Being able to become a family with the leader is something that many people wish for!

As the two were talking, they came to the laboratory and saw Qin Chulong and Wan Ping studying the contents of the iron bucket.

Director Song's eyelids twitched violently. He knew... He knew it...

Now I understand, these teacher and student research whatever material is the most expensive!

A shadow suddenly appeared, and the teacher and student finally turned their eyes away from the tungsten powder. When they saw that it was Du Yimeng, their eyes lit up.

As for Director Song, they subconsciously ignored him.

Finally they were back and could finally do their research. They had been envious of these materials for a long time, but it was really hard for them to just watch and not get their hands on them.

That’s right, the iron bucket was filled with tungsten powder. In that era, tungsten powder was stored in iron buckets.

There is also a double-layer polyethylene plastic bag built into the barrel to ensure the safety of tungsten powder during storage and transportation.

Du Yi dreamed that Qin Chulong and Wan Ping were observing the contents of the iron bucket, and she couldn't help but take a look out of curiosity.

I saw a silvery-white powder in the iron bucket. It turned out to be high-purity tungsten powder.

It looks very beautiful, and people who don’t know it just think it is metal powder. Who would have thought that after it becomes an alloy, it becomes one of the hardest metals.

When refined at high temperature and other elements are added, its color will change accordingly.

"Should we alloy the tungsten powder first?" Qin Chulong asked Du Yimeng. After seeing her nod, his eyes fell on Director Song again.

He had wanted to do this before, but Director Song tried his best to stop him and acted as if he didn't believe him.

So what if he is a mechanic?

He had learned a lot of Old Joe's skills when he was developing armor-piercing bullets last time. Although he was not as good as Old Joe, he was not completely clueless.

Also, when he first came to the institute, who was it that told him sincerely that he was a rare talent?

When the machinery in the institute was not up to standard, who made him work tirelessly to improve it and praised him as a talent again?

When the three of them, teacher and student, developed armor-piercing bullets, who praised them so much?

He is a talented person, so what's wrong with him researching tungsten powder?

"Xiao Du! Tell me how alloying works first?" Director Song completely ignored Qin Chulong's emotional expression and let the other party perform a solo.

He had to try to be as sure as possible before letting them study it.

"Alloying is to improve the performance of tungsten alloy. Adding an appropriate amount of alloying elements can improve its toughness, hardness and wear resistance. Next, it will undergo mechanical means such as rolling and internal extrusion to further improve the performance of tungsten alloy. The purpose is to improve its armor-piercing ability." Du Yimeng said naggingly.

When she first came to the institute, she knew nothing about weapons and equipment.

During that time, she studied all the time and almost thought that she was an emotionless learning machine.

As her scientific research skills reached a high level, and combined with her previous research on high-carbon alloy armor-piercing bullets, she also learned a lot about materials.

She now had a more thorough understanding of the material than before. With the blueprints for the tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectiles in her mind, she understood even more.

The more this happens, the more cautious she needs to be. Staying safe is the best way to go.

"Old Qin, I don't mean to hinder your research. It's just that the materials are too expensive. I'm worried that they will be consumed too quickly and there will be no results. If that's the case..." Director Song sighed helplessly when he said this. It was all because of poverty.

He also understood the difficulties above. The country was in a state of disrepair, there was a shortage of money everywhere, and no place was rich.

Every penny their research institute spent was raised by their fellow workers and peasants who tightened their belts.

They are reluctant to waste any materials, but they don’t have the skills!

Any piece of data needs to be tested bit by bit, which requires a lot of materials.

If they want technology, they have to invest money in it, but they don’t have the money.

If they don't have skills, they will be bullied, which is equivalent to cutting off their livelihood.

Anyway, it’s too difficult…

"Director Song, you don't have to pay me my salary anymore. Keep it all for buying materials!" Qin Chulong said. He was alone anyway and couldn't spend all the money.

It would be better to keep the money and invest it in scientific research, at least it will be of some use.

"Director Song, just give me half of my salary. I can keep the rest for buying materials." Wan Ping said immediately afterwards.

It’s not that he lacks the spirit of selfless dedication, it’s that he is still thinking about getting married!

If he meets a like-minded person in the future, but misses out on the opportunity because he cannot afford the money to marry a wife, he will hate himself now.

"I..." Du Yimeng was confused. They were obviously discussing how to research tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullets, so how did they end up talking about salary?

"Okay, you'd better keep your salary! I'm telling you all this just for a rainy day. Our institute is not that poor yet." Director Song said unhappily.

Their research institute is not so poor that they have to make scientific researchers sweat and spend money. Wouldn't that be tantamount to discouraging them?

"I really don't need that little money." Qin Chulong said again. He was obviously telling the truth, so why didn't anyone believe him?

Director Song: ...

He looked at Qin Chulong with a speechless look. Of course, this old bachelor who only cared about his career had no shortage of money, but no one helped him spend it, okay!

Du Yimeng: She felt he was being pretentious, and she had evidence.

If she remembered correctly, his salary was twice hers. He actually said that he didn't need that little money. Then what was her salary?

Wan Ping: Teacher, when you said this, have you considered his and Du Yimeng’s feelings?

Qin Chulong: None of that. He only cares about his scientific research.

"Old Qin, no matter how high your salary is, if no one helps you spend it, isn't it a pity? Once you get married, someone will help you spend it."

"Besides, last time you said you could make armor-piercing bullets, you should consider your personal issues. People should keep their promises." Director Song advised earnestly. He didn't want to cause any dislike.

Who made him the director?

Others will only think that he has not done his job as the director well, and he feels helpless too!

Qin Chulong: Aren’t we discussing how to develop tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullets? Why are we getting involved in personal issues?

Instead, Wan Ping looked at Director Song with expectation. The teacher didn't want to find a partner, but he did!

He is not as knowledgeable as his teacher, but he is young!
