I started with a ship full of max-level veterans, and I'm just a complete noob.

In the workshop, Old Sun's slap was loud and clear, and his resounding promise caused an uproar throughout Workshop No. 1.

The workers' gazes towards Jiang Ming had changed from that of a child prodigy studying abroad to that of a savior.

Jiang Ming remained calm, bent down to pick up the dented enamel mug from the ground, blew off the coal dust, and casually patted Old Sun on the shoulder.

"Master Sun, you're too kind. We're all doing this for the factory's production targets."

"If I draw any strange or unusual blueprints in the future, just don't find me annoying."

Old Sun was so excited that he kept patting his chest, making a loud thumping sound.

"Don't worry, Engineer Jiang!"

"From now on, wherever you point, I, Old Sun, will fight!"

"If anyone dares to trip you up in the workshop, I, Old Sun, will be the first to smash their teeth with a hammer!"

(✧◡✧) Done!

Jiang Ming appeared extremely humble, but inside he was overjoyed.

This level seven fitter skill will become his exclusive accessory for hand-crafting microwave radar and multi-cavity magnetrons.

Without these hardcore, experienced craftsmen at the grassroots level, even the most advanced blueprints for the future in his mind would just be a pile of waste paper.

Not far away.

Liu Shouxin hid behind the dark tin door, watching Jiang Ming being surrounded by the workers like a star, his eyes almost bleeding with jealousy.

(╬◣д◢) Just what kind of monster is this kid!

Even Old Sun, the most ill-tempered and difficult person in the factory, was completely subdued by him!

If things continue like this, where will Liu Shouxin have a place in the technical department?

Liu Shouxin gritted his teeth, turned around with a gloomy face, and headed straight for the factory office building.

He knew that in terms of skill, he could never catch up to this kid, no matter how hard he tried.

This kid not only understands basic mechanics, but he can also draw up top-notch electromagnetic resonance compensation diagrams on the fly.

But when it comes to using the tricks of the system, Liu Shouxin is the grandmaster!

What good is being technically skilled?

In this day and age, with just a little bit of crooked thinking about personnel transfers, a genius can be completely crushed in the mire!

a few days later.

Technical Section Office.

Jiang Ming was sitting in his drafty corner, holding a pencil, intently drawing the anode segmentation structure diagram of a multi-cavity magnetron on scrap paper.

With the promise of Lao Sun, a top-notch fitter, he is now full of energy.

As long as the blueprints are refined to the millimeter level that can be processed, he was able to create the core components of the first microwave air defense radar in New China in this simple red brick factory.

Suddenly, a forced, dry cough interrupted his train of thought.

Liu Shouxin, with his greasy side-parted hair and a thin piece of paper stamped with a red seal in his hand, swaggered over with an arrogant pigeon-toed gait.

His face was plastered with a fake smile, his wrinkles almost bunched up, making him look like an old fox who had just stolen a chicken.

"Oh, Little Jiang!"

"Great news!"

"What a joyous occasion!"

Liu Shouxin deliberately raised his voice, as if afraid that the people in the office wouldn't hear him.

Several young technicians looked up, puzzled.

Jiang Ming put down his pencil and leaned back calmly in his chair.

(￣ー￣) What kind of wicked trick is this old fox up to now?

"Xiao Jiang, although you haven't been with our factory for long, you've performed exceptionally well. Even the factory manager speaks highly of you."

Liu Shouxin walked up to Jiang Ming's desk and solemnly slammed the red-headed document in his hand onto Jiang Ming's desk.

"In response to the call from ministries to train young cadres and support the development of border regions, the factory, after careful consideration, has decided to give you a rare opportunity to gain experience!"

Jiang Ming lowered his head and glanced casually at the paper.

It was written clearly in black and white on the paper.

Assistant Engineer Jiang Ming was dispatched to a remote third-line factory in Northwest China for a six-month grassroots survey and technical exchange.

The document was signed by the Personnel Department of the Factory Office, and it was stamped with the bright red seal of the deputy secretary in charge of personnel.

The office fell into a deathly silence.

You could hear a pin drop clearly.

The technicians looked at each other, their eyes filled with obvious sympathy and shock.

Who doesn't know that the Third Front factory in Northwest China is located in the desolate Gobi Desert?

The sandstorms there are so strong they can peel a layer of skin off a person's face. There isn't even a decent lathe there. What's the point of exchanging technology there?

This is hardly gold plating.

This is clearly a demotion in disguise, an exile to the frontier!

By the time this six-month research period ends, the good news will be out of reach, and who in the factory will even remember who you, Jiang Ming, are?

This is a cunning and malicious scheme!

Jiang Ming looked at the transfer order and a mocking sneer curled at the corner of his mouth.

If you can't win, you resort to exile?

This old fox's methods are really quite retro.

"Deputy Director Liu, this is such a good opportunity for professional development, why don't you go yourself?"

Jiang Ming picked up his teacup, took a sip of water, and spoke in a flat tone, without even lifting his eyelids.

Liu Shouxin's facial muscles twitched violently.

But he quickly put on the earnest, elder-like expression.

"Xiao Jiang, you're wrong about that."

"I'm an old man, I won't be able to contribute much even if I go."

"You're different. You're young, energetic, and a top student who studied abroad."

Liu Shouxin patted Jiang Ming on the shoulder with a serious expression, as if he were genuinely mentoring a younger generation.

"This note was personally approved by the deputy secretary."

"If you return after six months of training on the frontier, it will be a shining achievement on your resume!"

"Promotion to section chief or deputy chief engineer in the future will be a natural progression, won't it?"

"Others would kill for this!"

(￣▽￣) Liu Shouxin was overjoyed.

What good is your skill if you're a genius?

So what if you get along well with the factory workers?

This is a legitimate transfer order that complies with organizational procedures!

If you dare to disobey the assignment, then you have a problem with your ideological awareness and you are resisting the organization's arrangements!

Once this heavy burden is placed on you, even Director Zhang will absolutely not be able to protect you!

"Hurry up and sign it, Xiao Jiang."

"I've already had someone buy you the train ticket; it's for the first train tomorrow morning."

"Don't worry, I'll personally handle your food rations."

Liu Shouxin forcefully shoved a pen into Jiang Ming's hand, his eyes flashing with a sinister urgency.

sign!

Sign it now!

Once this signature is signed, this kid will be permanently kicked out of the Third Electronics Factory!

From now on, Liu Shouxin will be the one to call the shots in this technical department!

Jiang Ming held the pen in his hand and casually twirled it twice.

He wasn't angry at all; on the contrary, he found it very funny.

This old bastard thinks he can control me just by using the deputy secretary's position as a weapon?

My backer is none other than Mr. Qian, who has connections that reach the highest heavens!

You, a marginal deputy director of the technical department, actually dare to bypass the factory director and chief engineer and play such low-level palace intrigue tricks.

They're really courting death.

Jiang Ming calmly tossed the pen back onto the table, crossed his arms, and watched Liu Shouxin's performance with amusement.

"Deputy Director Liu, I dare not sign this."

"I'm afraid if I sign it, someone will break my legs."

Liu Shouxin's expression suddenly changed, and he angrily pointed at Jiang Ming's nose.

"Jiang Ming! Don't push your luck!"

"This is the organization's decision!"

"Do you intend to disobey orders?"

Liu Shouxin roared hysterically, trying to overwhelm this troublemaker with his imposing manner.

Just as Liu Shouxin was about to continue accusing others of serious wrongdoing.

The heavy wooden door to the technical department office suddenly made a terrifyingly loud bang!

boom!

The entire door was violently kicked open, the hinges screeching loudly, and wood chips flying everywhere.

Everyone in the office shuddered and turned to look.

Chief Engineer Wu Hanzhang was standing at the door.

The old man's hair was disheveled like weeds blown by a strong wind, his eyes were bloodshot, and his chest was heaving violently.

He was clutching a piece of paper tightly in his hand, looking like a lion that had completely gone berserk.

Wu Hanzhang strode into the office, exuding a terrifying murderous aura, and headed straight for Jiang Ming's desk.

Before Liu Shouxin could react, Wu Hanzhang had already rushed in front of him like a whirlwind.

The old man grabbed the transfer order stamped with the deputy secretary's seal from the table.

Under Liu Shouxin's horrified gaze, Wu Hanzhang violently raised his arm.

Snapped!

The old man slammed that annoying transfer order hard onto Liu Shouxin's oily, chubby face!
