Siheyuan, don’t mess with me

“Having delicious food but not drinking wine, wouldn’t that mean half the fun is gone?” Hu Weijun still couldn’t get over the blow and said in a low voice,
“I’ll bring you some tea and wine!” Chen Zhiguo said with a smile, “Let’s go! I’ve brought back some good wine!”
“Really?”
“Really? Why would I lie to you? What good will it do? I’m a foodie!”
“Go! Go! Go!”
The two soon arrived at Chen’s courtyard. Chen Zhiguo took out a small jar and said, “Twenty-year-old Erguotou, you’ve never had it before!”
“I’ll do it! I’ll do it!” Hu Weijun grabbed it and unsealed the oil paper. Suddenly, a strong aroma of wine came to his nose. Hu Weijun sniffed and exclaimed, “Good wine!” Then, he looked at Chen Zhiguo with a suspicious look, “Are you sure you don’t want to drink it?”
Chen Zhiguo smiled and waved his hands, “No! This jar of wine is yours, take it back or leave it here, it’s up to you!”
“Hehe! It’s best if you don’t drink it. This jar of wine will be enjoyed by me alone!” Hu Weijun laughed!
In the kitchen, Hu Xiaoyun cut the roast duck and put it on a plate. He didn’t have the skill of slicing the duck like the master chef, so he just cut it into pieces directly. It tasted the same anyway!
“Come on, Zhiguo, let’s go for a drink.” Hu Weijun raised his glass impatiently.
“Okay, let’s do it!” Chen Zhiguo responded with a smile, picking up the teacup in his hand.
Although they couldn’t drink, the two of them had a great time chatting! But men only talk about a few things, except for a few things they can’t talk about in front of women, they talked about cars and armored beasts the most!
“Have you reported the jeeps you are producing?” Chen Zhiguo said casually while eating a peanut.
“Not yet. I’m just waiting for you to come back and do the test. I’ll report it once everything is OK!” Hu Weijun said with a grin, taking a sip of wine.
“I’ll see what we’re looking at. We’ll arrange for people to go to the test site, find a few more drivers, and have them take turns driving. Don’t stop the car, just keep driving it to see if there are any problems. Also, ask the driver what their driving experience is like and what else needs to be improved! We have to do these preliminary experiments again, so that at least when we report to the leaders, we’ll have experimental data!”
Hu Weijun nodded and said, “I will arrange for the driver and maintenance worker when I go to work tomorrow!”
Chen Zhiguo continued, “Also, this time we produced the gasoline version, and we must hurry up to produce the diesel version! Form a series. The diesel version is still very advantageous in high-altitude and cold areas. Not only is it powerful, but it is also easy to start, unlike gasoline cars, which freeze easily!”
Hu Weijun stopped using his chopsticks and thought for a moment, “It was really my negligence. I only thought about the normal situation and ignored this point! I will arrange to start production tomorrow! Let’s produce the experimental model as soon as possible!”
“That’s it for now. There’s no rush anyway. We’ll launch subsequent models after these two models pass the test!”
“Are there any designed models?” Hu Weijun asked in surprise.
“Of course, I’ve been too busy recently, and the design hasn’t come out yet. It’s still in my mind!” Chen Zhiguo said lightly.
“However, I still hope to see the Ironclad Beast you designed produced soon. This design is really amazing!”
“It’s difficult! We need a travel stabilization system but we haven’t figured it out yet. It’s giving me a headache!”
“No, let’s make a version first, let the leader take a look, and then you can study it slowly.”
“It can only be the!”
“Come on! Drink!”
When Hu Weijun left, he did not take the jar of wine with him. “You are not allowed to drink it secretly!” Hu Weijun said staggeringly.
“Do I need to do that?” Chen Zhiguo said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
. . . . . . . . . . . .
After seeing Hu Weijun off, Chen Zhiguo washed up and returned to the study. Although Ma Huihui was not there, Jiang Yuehua and the others were still living in the study!
“Would you like some tea?” Seeing Chen Zhiguo coming in, Jiang Yuechen put down the book in his hand and quickly stood up and asked,
“No more drinking! I’ve already had a stomach full of it!” Chen Zhiguo waved his hand and hugged Jiang Yuechen in his arms!
“Zhiguo!” Jiang Yuechen lay on Chen Zhiguo’s chest and whispered,
“What’s wrong?” Chen Zhiguo put his mouth close to Jiang Yuechen’s ear, and his warm breath sprayed on Jiang Yuechen’s ear, making her ears suddenly hot, and then her cheeks turned red!
“That’s right, that’s right…” Jiang Yuechen hesitated.
“What’s the matter? Is there anything we can’t talk about?” Chen Zhiguo was like a naughty child. He knew Jiang Yuechen was ticklish, but when he kissed her earlobe, Jiang Yuechen’s body trembled. “Itchy! You’re so annoying!”
Jiang Yuechen twisted her body, staring at Chen Zhiguo with her big misty eyes, feeling a little aggrieved and shy. She gently opened her tightly bitten red lips, “Sister said, sister said, let you go to Xiaoyun first tonight, and then come over!”
“Why?” Chen Zhiguo was stunned and stopped what he was doing.
“It’s all because of you!” Jiang Yuechen stomped his feet in anger.
“What’s wrong with me?” Chen Zhiguo was a little confused by what Jiang Yuechen said, but looking at the shy Jiang Yuechen in his arms, he suddenly understood!
“Oh!” Chen Zhiguo smiled evilly at Jiang Yuechen, “So that’s how it is!”
“What are you saying? Go when I tell you to!” At this time, Jiang Yuehua came out of the room, pinching her waist and said,
Chen Zhiguo chuckled, “Are you threatening me?”
“Ah!” Jiang Yuehua was immediately horrified and hurried back to the room.
“Go quickly! Otherwise, we will end up like this morning again!” At the critical moment, Jiang Yuechen grabbed Chen Zhiguo and said pitifully,
“You guys! You still need to exercise more!” If Ma Huihui were here at this time, she would definitely say in a disdainful tone, “You two little bastards!” Just when Jiang Yuechen wanted to refute, Chen Zhiguo hugged her and walked into the room without saying anything!
Jiang Yuechen was horrified and panicked, not knowing what to do. She could only choose to be an ostrich and lie in his arms!
Chen Zhiguo carried Jiang Yuechen into their room. Jiang Yuehua was sitting on the edge of the bed, swinging her legs out of boredom. When she saw them coming in, her face suddenly turned red! She was like a shrew just now, but now she was like a lamb to be slaughtered, trembling!
Chen Zhiguo gently put Jiang Yuechen on the bed, then kissed her forehead, “Have a good rest, I’ll come to see you later!” After that, he hugged Jiang Yuehua again, kissed her forehead in the same way, and chuckled, “Are you still so arrogant?” Before Jiang Yuehua could react, he turned around and left the room! Jiang Yuehua looked at his back and chuckled, the king of strong words! But at the same time, her heart was full of happiness and expectation!
Chen Zhiguo came to Hu Xiaoyun’s room and opened the door. He saw the two sisters sitting shyly on the bed, looking a little shy and nervous! Seeing this expression, Chen Zhiguo immediately understood that Jiang Yuehua must have communicated with them, and any private words must have been said long ago!
“Okay! How dare you hide this from me!”
. . . . . . . . . . . .
The next afternoon, Chen Zhiguo was busy in the office when Hu Weijun walked in with a gloomy face, “Zhiguo, something went wrong!”
“What’s going on? The sky is falling!” Chen Zhiguo said jokingly without even raising his head.
“All the experimental models have broken down!” Although Hu Weijun’s voice was not loud, it was like thunder in Chen Zhiguo’s ears!
“What’s going on?” Chen Zhiguo put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and looked at Hu Weijun seriously. His cold eyes made Hu Weijun feel a little scared!
“I haven’t gone to see it yet. The test site just called and said that our two experimental models have broken down!” Hu Weijun replied with shame. He was the one who led the production of these two cars. If there was no problem with Chen Zhiguo’s design drawings, then it was a quality problem in the production he led!
“Let’s go! To the scene!” Chen Zhiguo stood up without any hesitation and walked out quickly. Seeing this, Hu Weijun hurriedly followed him!
On the rugged and muddy test site, two cars were parked not far apart. At this time, many people were surrounding the cars to check them, and Chen Zhiguo drove straight over!
Seeing Chen Zhiguo and Hu Weijun get out of the car, the crowd immediately made way for them. “What happened? Have you found out the cause?” Chen Zhiguo asked loudly. At this time, Master Liu, who was lying on the ground and checking the chassis of the car, stood up and said, “Mr. Chen, the chassis is broken!”
“What? How could the chassis break?” Chen Zhiguo was shocked. This was no joke. If Chen Zhiguo had not suggested to experiment on his own first, if the car was sent directly to his superiors, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Moreover, the chassis is the most important part of the entire car. It not only supports and bears loads, but also ensures the driving stability and handling of the car. It also carries the entire car’s transmission system, and also has protective functions, improves safety, reduces noise and vibration, etc. Therefore, if the chassis beam is unqualified, the car will be scrapped! Even if it can barely drive, there will be many problems!
Chapter 422 Furious Chen Zhiguo!
Chen Zhiguo believed that there was no problem with his design, and the steel he selected had also been rigorously tested, so the problem was most likely in the production and processing stages!
“Arrange a tow truck to tow it back to the repair shop and dismantle it immediately!” Chen Zhiguo said with a cold face as he made the arrangements loudly!
The two cars were quickly towed back to the repair shop. “Dismantle!” Following Chen Zhiguo’s order, more than a dozen mechanics began to dismantle the two cars!
More people means easier work. As the car shell was removed and other parts were disassembled one by one, Chen Zhiguo looked at the disassembled parts with an increasingly gloomy face. When the broken beam appeared in front of him, Chen Zhiguo stepped forward to take a look, and the anger in his heart suddenly burned!
“Old Hu, whoever is in charge of the beam production, go and call all the people to me!” Chen Zhiguo shouted loudly. No one has ever seen Chen Zhiguo so furious!
Just as Hu Weijun ran to make a phone call, he heard Chen Zhiguo’s roar from behind him, “Go call everyone over, let’s hold a field meeting and give them a good wake-up call!”
Hu Weijun didn’t even turn his head, just waved his hand!
After more than half an hour, workers began to walk into the empty workshop of the repair shop. There were also many young people chasing and playing. When they saw Chen Zhiguo and Hu Weijun standing inside with gloomy faces, they became honest, but they were still whispering to each other! Only the older workers stood still with a serious face!
Chen Zhiguo waited patiently for more than 20 minutes, and saw that there were still three or two people walking into the workshop! Chen Zhiguo arranged two office staff members to follow Hu Weijun, “One of you will guard the door of the repair shop workshop and close it. Don’t let anyone in. Those who are late will stand outside! The other will prepare paper and pen for the workers on site to sign in!”
“Come on! Everyone listen up, everyone, according to your respective project teams, the team leaders stand in the first row facing me, and the team members stand behind the team leaders. You have two minutes to form a team!” Chen Zhiguo shouted to the sparse crowd.
After the team stood in line, Chen Zhiguo spoke, “All team leaders, start signing in with your team members, and check who else is absent from your team. If you need to take leave, please write down the reason!”
After all this was done, another ten minutes passed. Chen Zhiguo’s furious heart had calmed down. “Let’s have a meeting now. Before the meeting, I want to say one thing. From now on, when I call for a meeting, I hope everyone will not drag their feet. We are all in the same workshop, why can some people come here quickly after receiving the notice, while others have to dawdle for 20 minutes before coming? Who can tell me what you are busy with?
If you are not in the same workshop, I would forgive you, but you are working in the same workshop. Why is this happening? Are you busy with production tasks or do you have other things to do? As far as I know, your entire workshop should be fine now! What? Do you not want to attend the meeting? Or are you too lazy to walk? I hope you will think about it after you go back?
Today is the first and last time. At the next meeting, I hope to see that each team leader will lead your team members. I don’t ask you to line up, but I ask that you arrive together! Don’t drag your feet, don’t go in twos and threes!”
Chen Zhiguo paused, “The chassis team, move forward!”
As Chen Zhiguo spoke, a middle-aged man came forward with a dozen workers. “You are the team leader. Take your team members to look at the beams you produced. Tell me what is wrong with these beams, who produced them, and who inspected them! Go and see now!”
After a while, Chen Zhiguo looked at the middle-aged man standing in front of him, his face pale and sweating profusely, “What’s your last name?”
“My last name is Wang Deshui!” the middle-aged man replied.
“Team Leader Wang, tell me, how is this beam produced? Is it not marked on my design drawing? Or did you not look at the design drawing?”
“I saw it, it’s on the design!” Wang Deshui lowered his head and answered in a low voice.
“Then tell me, how did you produce it for me? Who welded this beam?”
“Mr. Chen, I was wrong. It was my fault!” Wang Deshui cried.
“Why are you crying? It’s not time for you to cry yet. Explain the situation to me clearly,” Chen Zhiguo said sternly.
“Yes, yes…” Wang Deshui stammered for a long time but still couldn’t explain clearly!
“Alright! I don’t need you to say anything more!” Chen Zhiguo didn’t want to waste time talking to him anymore, and said directly to the team members, “Who welded that beam? Stand up?” More than a dozen team members looked at each other, but no one stood up.
“What? No one dares to admit it?” Chen Zhiguo was a little angry. If we talk about responsibility in this matter, the team leader should be held more responsible. He dared to arrange production when the welder’s skills were unqualified and directly arranged loading without inspection. This was obviously irresponsible!
At this time, a young man stood up and said, “We didn’t weld that beam!”
“If it wasn’t you, then who did it? Where are the people?” Chen Zhiguo asked.
No one answered Chen Zhiguo’s question at the scene. “Okay, if you don’t want to answer, then don’t answer! Lao Hu, send all these people back and arrange for the factory security department to investigate. They are suspected of deliberate sabotage and deliberate shielding! After the matter is investigated, arrange for them to work!”
“Yes, the team leader’s brother-in-law!” the young man who just stood up shouted hurriedly.
“You don’t need to say anything now. I’ve given you a chance, but you don’t want to say anything and you’re still thinking about covering up! Now all of you, stand aside!” Chen Zhiguo waved his hand, “Other teams, check the products you’ve produced. Check them according to the standards marked on my design drawings, and then report to me. Start now!”
Just as the teams were inspecting the products under the leadership of their team leaders, Wang Deshui ran up to Hu Weijun and said flatteringly, “Director, please help me speak up!”
“Lao Wang, it’s not that I won’t help you, but you guys have gone too far this time. You think I’m easy to fool as the factory director, but do you think you can fool Engineer Chen as well? Stand there honestly and wait for the security department to come over and explain your problem!”
Hu Weijun felt particularly comfortable at this time. Today, he vented his anger fiercely! He felt really aggrieved as the factory director. He had to look at their faces for everything he did! So he would not help Wang Deshui to plead for mercy. After saying these words, he left Wang Deshui, who was almost paralyzed, and walked straight to Chen Zhiguo!
Hu Weijun is not like Li Jianshe before him, who knows the production inside out and no one dares to play tricks in front of him. But Hu Weijun is different. He comes from an administrative background and has been doing administrative and logistical work. He knows nothing about the technical production in the factory. It is very easy for such a factory director, the workshop directors, and the technical masters under him to fool him. Even if they produce a defective product, Hu Weijun will not be able to tell!
