Chapter 3109 Yang Xiaotao, I'll fight you to the death!
As night fell, Yang Xiaotao prepared to go home.
However, before Yang Xiaotao could even reach the parking spot, Liu Lixue and Lou Xiao'e clung to him, with Yang Youning following behind.
As the person in charge of external publicity for high-tech industries, Yang Youning's enthusiasm for this job is unprecedented.
They would seize any opportunity to promote the Nine Departments or the revolution.
Upon seeing the lyrics Yang Xiaotao typed out, Liu Lixue realized that this was a good opportunity, so she encouraged the two of them to start persuading and cajoling them!
"I said, you two have had enough. It's the middle of the night. You're not sleepy, but I need to rest."
Yang Xiaotao was speechless. These two guys had a clear intention: they wanted Yang Xiaotao to sing the song once.
But Yang Xiaotao was well aware of his own voice.
Even though Xiao Wei has been taking care of his health all these years, it still can't hide the fact that Yang Xiaotao's singing is deadly.
Especially now, singing so late at night, it's like ghosts howling and wailing.
Yang Xiaotao still needs to save face.
However, Liu Lixue and Lou Xiao'e will not give up easily.
"Mr. Yang, you wrote this song for the children who are going to France to participate in the competition, right?"
"Otherwise, they wouldn't have written the line 'standing in the middle of the stage'."
Liu Lixue said earnestly, "President Yang, we also want to do our part for the children."
"They're leaving the day after tomorrow, so we need to compose the music for this song as soon as possible and have someone record it so the children can take it to France."
"Don't you want the children to hear this song as they enter the competition?"
Yang Xiaotao listened and glanced at Liu Lixue. What she said was right; he did indeed have this idea.
However, the timing and occasion are indeed inappropriate right now.
Lou Xiao'e noticed Yang Xiaotao's predicament and whispered, "Mr. Yang, if it's inconvenient for you, you can hum it out, and we'll write it down and find someone to compose it."
Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath, glanced at his watch, then at the two men, knowing that if he didn't agree, he'd probably be going home very late tonight.
So he took a deep breath and said, "Let's go over there."
Yang Xiaotao pointed to a grove of trees not far away, saying that the abundance of trees in such places can block out noise.
Liu Lixue and the other person immediately nodded in agreement.
The three of them went into the grove, and Yang Xiaotao, without even humming, started singing.
A moment later, Yang Xiaotao walked out looking speechless, while Liu Lixue and the other person behind him were full of excitement.
The song was even better than they had imagined.
Of course, the singers are an exception.
"Alright, you guys should go home early."
Seeing the two whispering to each other, Yang Xiaotao simply waved his hand, got into his car, and drove off.
As they watched the car drive away, they suddenly burst into laughter.
"I was wondering why Mr. Yang doesn't like to compose songs; it must be related to his voice."
Liu Lixue looked certain, and Lou Xiao'e nodded happily, "That's right, who would have thought that President Yang, who has created so many great songs, is actually tone-deaf."
Suddenly, Liu Lixue's eyes lit up. "Xiao'e, what do you think about having him learn to compose music using sheet music? That way, he won't have to sing anymore, and we won't have to go through all that trouble."
Lou Xiao'e immediately nodded, "Yes, yes, we can find him a music teacher."
As they spoke, the two revealed sly smiles again.
After a while, Yang Youning saw the two of them walking over and quickly went up to ask, "How did it go? Did you succeed?"
"I saw him run away in a hurry, could he be angry?"
As Yang Youning spoke, Lou Xiao'e immediately laughed and said, "No problem, it's just that President Yang is very self-aware of his voice and feels embarrassed, which is why he left so quickly."
Yang Youning realized what was happening and then laughed along with him.
"Well, have you all remembered it?"
Liu Lixue pointed to her head. "Director Yang, you're worried about that? Don't worry."
Yang Youning clapped his hands. "Okay, I've already had someone speak to Commander Yu. Let's go over there now."
"Now?"
The two exchanged a glance, somewhat reluctant to go.
Yang Youning didn't give them a chance to refuse at all, "Hurry up, let's go as soon as possible. Time is tight. We still need to find suitable instruments to accompany the music and we still need to compose the piece."
"Let's record the song as soon as possible and make the tape so we can take it to France."
"This is of great significance to our cultural export."
"You don't want to delay things, do you?"
The two gave another wry smile.
Well, the reasons they used to persuade Yang Xiaotao have now come back to haunt them.
The key point is that they had no reason to refuse at all.
Left with no other choice, the two got into Yang Youning's car and headed towards the cultural troupe's residence.
Meanwhile, when Yang Xiaotao returned home, his family was already asleep.
After a quick wash, I went to bed to rest.
Although the summer night was hot and humid, it was not a problem at all for Xiaowei.
"Master, I can send my clone."
"I want to stay by my master's side."
"I will protect my master."
On the bed, Yang Xiaotao held his wife in his arms, but Xiao Wei's voice echoed in his mind, revealing a hint of reluctance.
"Xiao Wei, this distance is too far, I'm worried about it."
"I'll feel at ease if anything happens during the Dragon Boat Festival, as long as you're there."
"Then let Wangcai go."
“Wangcai is so big, it’s too conspicuous, and it’s nowhere near as good as Xiaowei. You’re the best.”
Yang Xiaotao spoke to Xiao Wei earnestly, as if coaxing a child, and Xiao Wei actually fell for it.
"Alright then, I'll go with you."
"but."
"Don't worry, I'll have someone find you the best wood, the kind that's been struck by lightning."
"Yay, Master is the best."
Then Xiaowei flew to the big locust tree outside, and the leaves moved without wind, sending a cool breeze into the house.
It's just a pity about the old locust tree; it suffers a period of devastation every year.
After daybreak, Yang Xiaotao arrived at the Ninth Department and then called Old Chen.
Upon hearing that nine printers had been produced, Mr. Chen was overjoyed.
This means that a crucial step in driving the development of computers has been completed.
Mr. Chen immediately took a car to the Ninth Department.
Then came Mr. Wang and Mr. Qian from the Seventh Ministry of Machinery Industry, who had received the news, and President Deng from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, who had come specifically for the occasion.
Since Professor Tao wasn't in Beijing, Dean Deng came out of curiosity and inquired about the printer.
In Yang Xiaotao's office, the first printer was installed in front of Liu Lixue's desk.
At this moment, Old Chen, Old Wang, and the others gathered around, watching Liu Lixue type quickly and then start printing in order.
Yang Xiaotao glanced at the other person. Although he was yawning constantly and had dark circles under his eyes, thankfully he hadn't made any mistakes.
otherwise…
They assigned her a ton of work! "This ink is quite good!"
Old Wang held the newly printed paper behind his back, and subconsciously moistened it with saliva, leaving Liu Lixue speechless.
Dean Deng stared at the printer with surprise. Was this what they were going to do next?
There's no need for time to prove it, because he's already seen its potential.
"Mr. Yang, can we make this printer?"
After learning about the printer's potential, Dean Deng became somewhat worried again.
After all, the Eighth Ministry of Machinery Industry, where their Academy of Agricultural Sciences was located, was not known for its industrial production; in fact, most of its industrial production was centered around agricultural production.
He was genuinely a little intimidated by such a sophisticated instrument as a printer.
Before Yang Xiaotao could reply, Dean Deng had barely finished speaking when Old Wang, who was standing nearby, immediately said with a quick glance, "Well, Dean Deng, since it's a collaboration between our two families and the Ninth Department, it's a matter for everyone."
"Don't worry, if you have any difficulties, the Seventh Ministry of Machinery Industry will definitely help you."
As soon as Wang Lao finished speaking, Dean Deng knew what the other party was up to.
The three parties agreed to cooperate during a meal. Although it was only a verbal agreement, given their status, a private agreement carries more weight than any written contract.
Yang Xiaotao agreed, so that's it.
The printer was naturally manufactured by three companies.
In terms of production task allocation, it is basically a 4:3:3 ratio, that is, the Ninth Department accounts for 40%, while the Seventh and Eighth Departments each account for 30%.
It seems that this scoundrel Wang is up to no good.
After hearing what Elder Wang said, Dean Deng immediately shook his head and said, "That's not necessary, we have that kind of capability!"
"If all else fails, I'll definitely ask my comrades from the Seventh and Ninth Ministries for help!"
Dean Deng didn't rule out any possibility, but the meaning behind his words was quite clear!
Mr. Wang was somewhat disappointed. Anyone with eyes could see that this thing, when paired with a computer, would definitely be a powerful tool in the office.
The printed output is in print and doesn't require any further changes.
And if you want to make changes, you can simply open and edit it again on your computer.
On the way here, Lao Qian had told him that this thing was of great help to the clerical work of their Seventh Ministry of Machinery Industry. Some of the documents could even be made into electronic versions, making them easier to archive.
Moreover, it is said that the Ninth Division has already conducted research in this area, called something like a storage hard drive!
Old Wang is extremely envious now.
Keep in mind that it's already May, almost half the year has passed, and they haven't even achieved one-tenth of their production target.
If we can't finish this, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?
I'm so anxious!
Yang Xiaotao ignored Wang Lao's expression and said to Dean Deng, "There are definitely some technical difficulties, but it's not like it can't be developed."
"According to the plan, as long as the corresponding factories are set up, machines and technical personnel are deployed, and we work diligently, there will be no problem!"
After a moment of contemplation, Yang Xiaotao continued, "This is just the beginning. There will be improved models later, so it's important to set up the production plant as soon as possible to facilitate future development."
At this point, Dean Deng understood what Yang Xiaotao meant.
This is to move everyone forward together and develop together.
Their machine department can't afford to hold them back.
Yang Xiaotao then looked at Old Wang and said, "Also, we need to start production as soon as possible. This time we will send two units to France and West Germany, which will also help us make a name for ourselves."
"The Ninth Division will make some adjustments to the photocopier production line here. We can handle the initial workload if there aren't many tasks."
"But once a large number of orders come in later, we'll have to work together to make the most of everything."
After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Old Wang immediately rubbed his palms together and said, "Don't worry about that. I had people make preparations when I came here. With the previous preparations, as long as the technical personnel are all here, we can guarantee that we can do as much as we need within a month!"
Old Wang spoke with great enthusiasm, which made Dean Deng take a deep breath, "We are the same."
Yang Xiaotao nodded upon hearing this.
On the other side, Mr. Chen and Secretary Guo personally tried out the printer and also praised it highly.
"We can use this paper to print a batch of office documents, and after adjusting the format, we won't have to bother with the distribution of the documents anymore!"
Secretary Guo sighed, then laughed, "This means many of our comrades might lose their jobs!"
Everyone laughed after he finished speaking.
Old Chen laughed and said, "I won't be laid off. With computers and printers, the work will only increase and become more refined in the future."
"You all need to keep up with the pace of technological development; you can't fall behind!"
Secretary Guo nodded repeatedly.
Then Old Chen looked at Yang Xiaotao and said, "You can decide this yourselves, but you have to send me one tomorrow."
"Is everything alright?"
Yang Xiaotao immediately nodded, "No problem."
Upon hearing this, Old Chen smiled and left.
After Mr. Chen left, Yang Xiaotao led Mr. Wang, Mr. Qian, and the other two to the research institute.
After personally witnessing the printer manufacturing process, both Mr. Wang and Dean Deng had some reservations.
When they weren't looking, they thought their own factory was capable of handling the task.
But after watching the whole process, it was very different from what I had expected.
Especially Old Wang, after reading it, his smile faded and his expression became more solemn.
After looking around, the group went to Elder Ye's office, where Elder Wang was still thinking about how to complete the task.
But Yang Xiaotao exchanged a glance with Old Ye and quickly got to the point.
After glancing at Professor Qian, Yang Xiaotao spoke first, "Teacher, what have you thought about what I told you last time?"
Old Qian understood what Yang Xiaotao and Old Ye meant, and could only give Old Wang a regretful look before saying, "That's a good idea, and it fits the current situation."
Personally, I have no objection!
Yang Xiaotao immediately nodded, "That's great! Director Yang already has a separate module in our research lab. Now that another separate module has been established, it will be of extraordinary significance to the development of our research lab!"
Yang Xiaotao spoke happily, deliberately ignoring the puzzled look on Old Wang's face.
Old Ye chimed in, "Next, we need to speed things up. The venue is ready, we can recruit students in advance, and we need to finalize the teachers as soon as possible."
"We also need to come up with a well-organized plan for the teaching content."
At this point, Professor Ye took out a plan from a drawer. "This is the teaching content about basic physics, astrophysics, and satellite-related majors that Professor Shu Xingbei and I compiled together."
"Chen Fang from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, along with some colleagues, will be responsible for teaching advanced mathematics, organic chemistry, and biology."
"Some colleagues from the Chinese Academy of Sciences will be hired here to give lectures regularly. In addition, outstanding scientists such as Hua and Chen will be invited to give lectures here."
"Overall, we need to establish an organization to specifically train professional talents!"
If Old Wang and Dean Deng still don't understand what's going on at this point, then they've wasted their ears.
"The aerodynamics here will also become an important subject!"
"So what we need to decide now is whether to appoint a tenured faculty member or an external hire!"
After Elder Ye finished speaking, a hint of struggle flashed in Elder Qian's eyes, but he still firmly said, "Hiring an external person is not appropriate. I am a member of the research lab myself, and I must support the organization's work!"
"So, let's make it a regular subject. I should be able to do it!"
As Mr. Qian spoke earnestly, Yang Xiaotao quickly interjected, "Teacher, actually, these things don't need to be too strenuous. At most, there are only three classes a week, and you can arrange your time freely."
"It will be convenient for you to work in the research institute!"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"
Old Wang suddenly appeared among the group, his face anxious. "Wait a minute, what did you say?"
"Old Qian, you, you..."
"You're abandoning me like this?"
Qian Lao was speechless, so Yang Xiaotao spoke up directly, "Comrade Lao Wang, this is an internal meeting of the High-tech Industry Research Office. Please maintain a proper attitude and don't get emotional."
"Of course, you can express your opinion, but you need to understand the organization's arrangements..."
Looking at the helpless expression on Old Qian's face, and then at Yang Xiaotao's endless chatter, Old Wang felt a mix of emotions. He jumped up and shouted, "Yang Xiaotao, I'll fight you to the death..."
