The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

Chapter 1181 Leaving to meet again

If you ask who is the best in the sword-forging competition, in this era, the blacksmiths in the steel rolling mills are probably not much inferior to those contestants.

No matter they are junior, intermediate or senior references, each one is strong and muscular. The higher their level, the thicker their arms swinging the hammers. They are just like the wrestlers at the Nadam Festival on the Neimeng grassland.

"Fu Tianchang, forging shackles with a free forging hammer~!"

"Gan Zhan, forge the cylinder block with a free forging hammer~!"

"Lu Zhiling, pneumatic hammer forging a four-crank crankshaft~!"

"Yao Yugang, die-forged automobile steering knuckle~!"

"Pei Zixin, hydraulic press forging flange~!"

"...!"

Those who drew the test questions were either so nervous that their faces turned red, or their faces turned pale because of their less-than-ideal results.

The man with special skills spit into his palm, then held the pliers in one hand and the hammer in the other, and started to work.

For a while, the sound of hammers clanging was endless in the examination room. After the rough steel billets were hit, sparks flew and exclamations were heard from time to time.

There were more than thirty people, and not all of them had strong mental qualities. Some of them failed to hold the heated rough blank firmly, and the blank fell to the ground. The workers around who were watching the busy work immediately laughed in a low voice.

"Quiet, quiet, this day will come to you sooner or later, how can you guarantee that you can get through it 100%~!"

Liu Haizhong, who had a big belly, was not invigilating and did not participate in the assessment at this time. He didn't know if his apprentice was among these people. When he saw the sighs all around, which affected the performance of the contestants, he hurried to stop them.

Although the seventh-level worker has not yet reached the pinnacle of eighth level, he already has a certain aura. Everyone, whether they know him or not, gives him some face at this moment.

As for the low-level workers present, they could only watch and dared not even say a word. For example, the women in the crowd who usually made noises all the time felt a headache when they saw the assessment.

I was lucky enough to pass the exam, but now I am obviously a little scared about being promoted to level two.

"Pay attention, and use what you have learned. Don't try to take shortcuts. We all know who is good and who is not good~!"

Although he was not an invigilator, Liu Haizhong had both seniority and experience in the forging workshop. Especially after he became the leader of the workshop learning leading group, he paid more attention to this area.

After eliminating external interference, the pressure began to build on the contestants. As the team leader, it would be a disgrace for him if the study group he led failed to play the corresponding role.

"Hey, you're Liu, Comrade Liu Haizhong, right? I remember you, you're level seven, right~!"

The invigilator sent by the Labor Bureau saw Lao Liu standing near the examination room in high spirits, pushed his glasses, put all the reference papers aside, and pointed at him.

"I saw you. Why didn't you sign up this year? You're just one step away from level eight!"

This was terrible. Liu Haizhong had not expected this. He just wanted to take this opportunity to show off his power and establish his image in the welding workshop, but he was recognized by the examiner in charge.

How could he not know that this was the only step left, but this step had blocked many of the same level 7 workers across the country.

When Old Yi was around, Old Liu worked harder than anyone else in the exam because he didn't want to be defeated by Yi Zhonghai. He pretended to be above him and vowed to pass the eighth level.

However, as time went by and Lao Yi left, Lao Liu's obsession with reaching level eight gradually faded. The eldest son is now a cadre, and although he is not a cadre, he is still distracted by the family quarters, and his mind is no longer on this.

"No, the die-forged first-stage turbine disc is not passable, and the cone ring is barely passable. Never mind, let's do it next year, next year~!"

Forced a stiff smile on his face, Lao Liu did not put on airs in front of the examiner. As he said, everyone knows clearly that low-level workers may have luck sometimes, but senior workers, especially those who have to pass the eighth level, will not be able to pass. It is not a matter of using connections.

It can be said that for those who passed the exam to become level eight workers by sheer effort, it was because the highest technical level was set at level eight, but for level seven workers, they are actually level seven. The difference between the two is almost as big as a chasm.

Some people rely on acquired learning, while some people are fed by God. They are different.

"Oh~, next year~!"

The examiner shook his head in disappointment, seeing the hurdle that Liu Haixin couldn't get over, and pushed it to next year. After this push, many people could no longer make any progress.

These young people in the examination room are just going over the same things over and over again. There is nothing interesting to see anymore. When the time is up and the examination is finished, the result will be known.

It doesn't even need to end. You can see at a glance which people are strolling leisurely like butterflies flying through the forest, and which are in a hurry like lost dogs.

What they like to watch most is the assessment of senior workers, which is really exciting.

For example, when a watch is put under a pneumatic hammer, the hammer can break the glass on the surface but the hands inside can continue to move. If you can train your skills to this level, then you have mastered the art.

Of course, this method is rather extravagant, and only senior workers who have mastered this technology and are bold and careful would dare to do so, which would broaden people's horizons.

An hour later, the test is over and whether you pass or not will be known on the spot. Under the records of the vernier caliper, no one can cheat in public. Those who pass are smiling, and those who fail are naturally dejected.

This lively scene will continue for about a week, with people from different job types taking turns to come. Even the cooks in the factory will have to come. However, unlike the workers, the highest level in the factory is only level six.

"So far this year, the passing rate of the assessment has greatly increased. Compared with last year, the increase is about 23.4%, which fully demonstrates the importance of the learning leadership team~!"

"I hope that the workers of our Red Star Steel Rolling Mill will continue to use Communism to arm themselves, strengthen their learning ability, and use technology and output to support the country's construction...!"

On the loud speaker, the staff of the Propaganda Department were reading the broadcast script. Even though it was time to get off work, their voices were still sonorous and powerful. The prosperous and happy news greatly stimulated the employees who were facing assessments later.

"Don't say it, new people, new things, new country, now that the leadership has changed, the workers are all motivated~!"

The changes in the steel mill allowed all the workers to witness with their own eyes that the increase in output came from the improvement in their technology. The reason why the technology was improved was the change in management methods.

Li Feng has taken over the steel mill for more than a year. With a series of policy incentives, the steel mill has indeed changed its declining trend.

After the adjustment of the leadership team from giving priority to leading cadres to giving priority to grassroots employees, the steel rolling mill once again regained new vitality.

The undecided selection of the factory director had always been under the watch of the higher-ups, and along with various year-end reports, it was gathered on the desk of Liu Ding (the big boss).

All this will gradually undergo another change.

At the Beijing Railway Station, Jiang Defu, who was wearing the steel mill security uniform, was feeling very nervous.

An Jie is here, and the representative office approved the family members' visit to Beijing. Jiang Defu really misses his wife after not seeing her for nearly half a year!

He left for himself and for the preservation of his family. He had waited for this day for too long...
