Chapter 1443

January 1, 1988.

It was originally new year's day, a holiday for all units in the country. However, the site of Yang Rui's genetic engineering laboratory was as noisy as a big construction site.

Of course, this is the construction site.

Excavators, bulldozers, cranes and trucks are all around us. There are endless trucks carrying sand, cement and steel materials. Soldiers in gray camouflage clothes are running fast with shoulder poles and shovels. Looking around, the dust is like a dirty fog, which is not clear.

If judged according to the environmental protection standards, the construction site here should have given a five-star poor evaluation.

However, the cadres of the municipal Party committee and ministries and commissions who came to inspect, but one by one, showed a smile.

The officers in the headquarters of the engineering corps also have a bright face. They carefully introduce every kind of equipment and construction technology. When they mention their numbers, they can see in detail every campaign and general battle they take part in.

"The order directly issued by the CMC is not to make an oath or hold a general meeting, but to complete the construction of the 8811 project!" The officers of the regiment took advantage of the pleasure of the leaders and said it out loud, which immediately got all kinds of approval.

"It is not because the 8811 project is not important that the National Normal University will not do it, but because the 8811 project is too important and firmly supports the decision of the CMC." The teacher stood on the steps with his hands behind his back, still showing his attitude.

The reporter of the military newspaper next to him immediately wrote in his notes.

"The 8811 project is a confidential key project. It is not only for the purpose of using time and energy in the project, but also for the purpose of confidentiality. Military newspapers can record it, but when publishing articles, they must not mention specific personnel and locations. " The political commissar of the division gently reminded the reporter of the military newspaper.

The reporter quickly nodded and said: "certainly, after the article is written, it must be submitted to the relevant departments for review."

"The engineering group should also strictly abide by the confidentiality regulations. I have said that many times, but I still want to say that it must be strictly confidential. Do you understand?" The political commissar of the Division has no warm words to the political commissar of the regiment.

"We must strictly abide by the confidentiality regulations. The regiment has already preached the requirements to the battalion, every company, every platoon, every class and everyone. " The regiment administration hesitated for a moment, and then said, "after the whole regiment announced its departure, all letters sent out to the outside world are not allowed to be sealed. They have to go through the two-level inspection of the company headquarters and the regiment headquarters, and only after they are qualified can they be sealed. Everything is carried out according to the requirements of the war."

The political commissar of the division asked a few more questions, and when he was satisfied, he took a look at the officers of the headquarters.

When it was the leader's turn to speak, he put his eyes on Dai Yingxiong's face and asked, "is there any difficulty now?"

"There are indeed some problems. I hope the municipal Party committee and the municipal government can help solve them." Dai Yingxiong seized the opportunity and said immediately“ First of all, the problem of accommodation is not easy to solve. Originally, the 8811 project could only provide tents and temporary houses for more than 100 people. Half of the canteens were not equipped with roofs. Now more than 1000 people have come all at once, and the tents are not in place in time. The soldiers are tired and have a bad rest, which greatly affects their combat effectiveness. "

The leaders of the municipal Party committee nodded and did not immediately make their stand.

"The second is heating. It's very cold now. During the day, only a few hours at noon are above zero, and other hours are below zero. There is not enough heating equipment and fuel on the construction site. " Dai Yingxiong stopped for a moment and said, "I originally said that we could solve the problem by burning diesel for the time being, but the engineering group refused after studying it."

"Diesel itself is not enough." The regiment leader explained: "when our regiment receives the order, it will go day and night to load the vehicles, and the heavy equipment will be delivered first. The whole military train is just to bring the construction machinery in time. If the diesel oil is burned, the heavy equipment will have to lie down. At that time, the workload of an excavator will have to be replaced by a platoon of soldiers. The gain is not worth the loss."

"How to solve the heating problem now." The leaders of the municipal Party committee had to be concerned. It's one thing to live badly. If we don't solve the problem of heating, it will cause frostbite and even worse.

Not to mention that the cities in the 1980s were colder, compared with later generations of urban people, the heating problem in the north in the 1980s was always prominent. In cities of later generations, you can easily find warm places. Public shopping malls, subways and even buses, private company buildings or your own homes and cars are so warm that many Northerners don't even have to wear sweaters in their coats. Anyway, it's just a few minutes to go out and take a bus, and the heat doesn't dissipate.

But in the 1980s, the situation was completely different.

First of all, there is no heating for all public facilities such as shopping malls. Of course, heating or stoves can be used in offices and homes, but it is limited to very narrow spaces. For example, if there is no earthen Kang in the evening, it is all by shaking to warm the quilt.It's the same with the office. Where everyone works most, the leader's office can still be warm, but it also needs to wear a sweater or even a cotton padded jacket. When you get to the corridor or the toilet, you can't find any heat.

In such an environment, ordinary people will feel cold all day long. When they have time, they would like to hold the stove for heating. On the construction site, the shortage of fuel is very miserable. Without a good living environment, the shortage of fuel is even worse.

The head of the group said: "we took some funds for activities to buy coal. However, the quota of coal in the capital is also very tight. We don't buy much, but most of them are broken coal. We can only make some coal cakes..."

"It's a waste of time for soldiers to build temporary houses and collect heating materials." Dai Yingxiong said: "the weather will get colder and colder. If this problem can't be solved, the construction period can't be completed with high speed and high level."

High speed and high level is a slogan, which is hung on the wall of the intersection.

"Lao Han, do you think the material bureau can do something about it?" The leader of the municipal Party committee asked the people in the back.

"It's OK to allocate some coal, and heating equipment is in great demand everywhere now. You can make some honeycomb briquette stoves first, and then buy some cast iron stoves..." Lao Han said in detail. As soon as he came to the construction site, he knew what he needed, and he had gone through it in his mind.

"Ask the factory to work overtime for part of the production." The leader turned around and said a word to the secretary. Most of today's factories are still state-owned enterprises, especially the small enterprises in the capital, most of which are subordinate to the street or district Party committee. When they receive orders from the municipal Party committee, they will only work hard.

"Housing is always a big problem." The leader of the municipal Party committee spoke slowly again and said, "in this respect, let's brainstorm."

A group of people muttered.

As a matter of fact, all the cadres on the scene are experienced. What's going on at the construction site has long been in the eye. Now it's just an exchange of views and a fight for consensus.

"In order to buy time, we have to find a way to provide ready-made houses." The cadres of urban construction bureau put forward the plan.

"Where can I find a ready-made house?"

"This... Is easier to do if it's scattered..."

"No, there's no way to keep secrets. We have to concentrate on resettlement. It's really no good. Our engineering group would rather work harder." The commander was not guilty at all. He ate and slept with the soldiers. At night, he lived in a canteen without eaves, put on a thin sleeping bag, and baked a bonfire without heat. Although the conditions were difficult, it was conducive to the completion of the task. The whole engineering group had no opinion. If the conditions are better, the capital will not be worse than the poor mountains in the southwest.

Urban Construction Bureau cadres some tangled, said: "now the housing is very tight, centralized resettlement, there is no such big place. If you want more than 1000 people to live well and warm, you don't need a lot of working hours to build temporary housing. You need at least 5000 square meters of housing, that is, about 4 square meters per capita, to eat, drink, shower and rest at the same time... "

The more the cadre said, the more helpless he became. It's totally different from what he imagined.

"The way is to come up with it." The leader of the municipal Party committee pauses for a moment and says, "be bold in assuming and be careful in verifying."

The two members of the Urban Construction Bureau looked at each other. At last, the director accompanied by them said, "I really can't, so I have to requisition ready-made houses."

"How?" The leader looks the same. He doesn't know how much influence this will have.

In terms of housing conditions in the capital, the family conditions are relatively good. If a couple takes two or three children and can allocate a two bedroom apartment of 30 square meters, they will burn high incense.

Single young people, basically want to live together, unit conditions better two or three people a 10 square meter house, poor conditions on the use of upper and lower bunks, a tube into eight people ten people are normal, and university dormitory is no different.

88 In China, the concept of living room was not popular. Except for senior cadres, who could be luxurious enough to have a living room?

Even for senior cadres, if there are many children in their families, they have to set up a bed in the original living room. At most, they have to use curtains to pull it up.

In such an environment, more than 1000 people expropriate 5000 square meters of housing, which is equivalent to 1000 families, and then hundreds of single youth vacate their houses.

Although the house is a unit, the state, the movement is too big.

The director of Urban Construction said: "within a few kilometers, there are families' homes of wool textile factories, aluminum factories and general machinery factories. In addition, there are separate dormitory buildings in the municipal hospital and education system..."

"When you coordinate the relocation, you should explain that it is only temporary. In addition, the relocation work should be meticulous, The allocated housing conditions should not be worse than the original ones, especially for the families with large population, which should not affect the original life as much as possible, and should take care of whether it is convenient for their children to go to school... The original houses should not be changed or damaged as much as possible... "The leader did not say the specific plan, that is to say, the people below could only nod their heads and promise.From this, the plan was also determined. The surrounding enterprises and institutions and the family homes of the government organs will free up 5000 square meters of housing for the soldiers of the engineering regiment, so as to unify the work of commuting and security.

The officers of the engineering regiment didn't expect to be taken care of like this, so they couldn't help but be warmly welcomed.

The head of the regiment is a sincere person. Hearing this, he can't help but take a step forward. He said to Dai Yingxiong, "the city is so considerate for us. We dare not ask for any more. There are too many 5000 square meters of housing, and the impact is too big. 2000 square meters is enough. We have to squeeze and hit the floor. Two months will be over."

"High quality projects need high-quality logistics support. 2000 square meters is not enough. You have to wash your feet at night for a hard day. 2000 square meters is only 1.5 square meters per capita. At that time, the kitchen will have to live. How do you boil water and how do you eat? "

"The construction forces work in three shifts, and there is no need to arrange accommodation for 1200 people at one time." The head of the regiment did not want to cause any trouble, but argued.

Dai hero shook his head and said, "no, I am a chief engineer. I have held more projects than you. I has the final say in this regard, logistical support is the mapping of construction quality. That is, logistics is a mirror of construction quality, and it is not too low. In addition, the construction materials and vehicle oil also need the help of the city. In particular, high-grade cement is in short supply. Winter construction, no suitable materials, built out of the project certainly can not pass... "

Dai Yingxiong, who has done a lot of big projects, knows the importance of fighting for resources. He is far from a solid team leader.

The leaders at all levels who came to inspect also ignored the leader's words. If they were too short of money, they would not be needed. If they could not do it well, it would be better not to do it.

Finally, the leaders of the municipal Party committee made a summary: "the 8811 project, that is, the Yang Rui genetic engineering laboratory project, is an important support for China to move towards the 21st century and realize the four modernizations, and a brave exploration of Chinese Science..."

"Today's world is changing rapidly. We should not only work honestly and hard, but also forge ahead and seek truth through innovation, If the 8811 project is completed one day earlier, China's biological science and technology will catch up with developed countries. "

"Comrades, there is not much time left for us. Just this morning, I saw the report that in 1987, the per capita GDP of Taiwan, one of the four little dragons in Asia, exceeded US $5000, South Korea also has $3500. Singapore has reached US $7700, and Hong Kong is close to 9000, ranking 26th in the world. China ranks 122nd in the world, with a per capita GDP of less than US $300, one thirtieth of that of Hong Kong! "

"How can we catch up with other countries? How will the Chinese nation stand in the forest of nations? Here, I would like to quote Comrade Xiaoping's speech at the Symposium on science and education in 1977: where can we start if our country wants to catch up with the world's advanced level‘ I think we should start with science and education. "If we do not pay attention to science and education, there will be no hope for the four modernizations, and it will become empty talk."

The head of the regiment was full of vigor and poetry. He murmured to himself: "the banners and banners of the Zhuang year support thousands of people, and the Jinchen suddenly ride across the river at the beginning of the year..."

"What?" The commissar didn't hear it clearly. He looked back.

The head of the regiment gritted his teeth, shook his arms and cried out: "hard work, home for all the world!"

The head of the regiment began to shout slogans, and the soldiers around him immediately followed. While continuing their work, they chanted as if they were chanting a chant: "hard work, all around the world for home!"

work hard and perseveringly!

feel at home wherever one goes!

So it is.
