The factory where Liuyun is located, although it is called an overhaul factory, has a strong production capacity because it has a large number of senior jobs in the grade.

And Wu Dalei, the director of the overhaul plant, often says on his lips, "If we get together all the shipbuilding equipment, we can squeeze the Modong shipyard down." ”

Although Wu Dalei's words are a bit exaggerated, they also reflect the strength of the overhaul plant from the side.

Moreover, the engine of the Type 037 hunting submarine that Liuyun repaired before used to have a considerable part of the parts that were produced in the overhaul factory; It's just that later, due to the spread of the Type 037 hunting submarine to the shipyards in the north, the overhaul plant received fewer orders, and it gradually became idle......

Chen Ning's technology has entered a period of steady growth, and there is no longer a need for Liuyun to teach one-on-one.

But Liuyun is not idle, he is preparing to "dig the corner of socialism", and wants to use the equipment in the factory and leftovers to build a refrigerator for his family.

Liuyun's original intention to make refrigerators came from the leftovers at home.

Sometimes, Chen Ning and Liuyun would forget to eat in the canteen of the unit because they were busy, and forgot to tell their families; Meals at home, many times, will be left because of the lack of two main forces, and a lot of leftovers, once hot, the meal is easy to spoil.

After a long time and a lot of waste, Liu Xiaohui was a little distressed, so she complained to the brothers and sisters......

Then, Liuyun thought of the Lingfeng refrigerator.

The physique of the refrigerator is much larger than that of the huge ice storage refrigeration equipment, and the processing difficulty has also increased a lot: considering the use at home, the noise is required, and the processing accuracy of the compressor is several levels higher than that of the compressor used in the freezer.

Moreover, in the seventies of the twentieth century, the load of the power grid was still a big problem, and the power of the refrigerator could not be designed too high......

It took a lot of effort for Liuyun to design the plan.

Compressors, evaporators, condensers and throttle valves are all conventional designs, but when it comes to thermostats, Liuyun is really difficult to cook, so she can only use modified industrial pointer thermometers instead of thermistors.

After the design was completed, Liuyun began to secretly trial produce parts in the factory......

A month later, Liu Xiaohui used the high-end electrical appliances in Chuanzhong, the refrigerator. Then, somehow, the news of Chen's family Shangling refrigerator spread to the overhaul factory.

In order to "commend Comrade Liu Yun's contribution to socialist construction", the factory issued 2,000 catties of pork tickets to Liuyun, and then got the complete information of the Lingfeng refrigerator......

On 1 October, a congratulatory gift prepared by a certain navy overhaul factory for the 24 th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China -- 10 sets of 200-liter White Bear refrigerators -- were delivered to the capital.

After that, the overhaul factory became an instant hit, and made a lot of money by relying on the only business of scorpion. At the end of the year, Wu Dalei, the director of the overhaul plant, issued two year-end bonuses to all employees, one on New Year's Day and one for the Spring Festival.

Of course, Comrade Wu Dalei issued two year-end bonuses, which are not simply rewards, there is news: many factories across the country are encouraged by the overhaul factory and are ready to launch refrigerator production lines......

Although Wu Dalei has a sense of urgency, it is not too strong: refrigerators are not the main business of the factory; And the core of the refrigerator, the compressor, is not something that ordinary factories can play......

On the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, Liuyun and Chen Ning, who had just taken annual leave, went out of the factory happily with a huge amount of meat tickets issued by the factory.

Before the two of them could go far, a shrill alarm sounded throughout the factory, and not long after, Wu Dalei's voice appeared on the radio......

"Level 1 combat alert, all technicians above level 4, return to the factory and stand by!"

Yes, you don't have to go back!

Liuyun smiled bitterly and sighed, took out his meat tickets, and put them in Chen Ning's hand: "Second brother, I can't go back, please take these meat tickets home!" ”

"This ......" Chen Ning glanced at Liuyun helplessly, "Boss, you're the only one left here!" ”

"It's okay," Liuyun smiled, "Aren't there so many colleagues?" ”

"Okay!" Chen Ning smiled bitterly and nodded, "Old Chen must have had an uneasy life this year!" ”

After sending Chen Ning away, Liuyun rushed back to the machine shop......

"Master Liu is back too?"

Liuyun smiled bitterly and nodded: "Just walked to the door, by the way, do you know what the reason is?" ”

The old technician nodded: "I heard that there was a fight with South Vietnam at sea!" ”

While the two were talking, other technicians in the workshop also came back one after another. Although I can't spend the New Year at home, everyone's consciousness is quite high and there are no complaints......

When the personnel are all gathered, the workshop director divides the workers into three waves and takes turns on duty.

And those who couldn't go home for the New Year were not only technicians above the fourth level, but also the storage and transportation department in charge of materials and transportation in the factory, who was forced to be strong before the holiday......

The factory was all arranged, and the factory director Wu Dalei informed the cause of the alarm through the radio......

"Just a few hours ago, the South China Sea Fleet and the South Vietnamese puppet army officially started a war in the Xisha Sea area of our country!"

"As for the reason for bringing everyone back, it's very simple, the main force of the South China Sea Fleet is the Type 037 and Type 6604 hunting submarines, plus the Type 6605 and 6610 minesweepers, and I don't need the rest, right?"

Everyone on duty understands that the plant has previously produced Type 037 and Type 6604 hunting submarines, and there are many senior technicians, and in terms of emergency processing capacity, the overhaul plant is also counted in the naval system......

Revolutionary workers have a brick and move it wherever it is needed.

Although it is no longer possible to pass the Ansheng New Year, the left-behind workers of the overhaul plant are still a little excited, and they can finally contribute to the cause of national defense......

Then, the South Vietnamese ships and guns were reimbursed by the submarine hunting team of our heroic People's Navy......

After a hearty victory, the ships of the South China Sea Fleet were also scarred.

As a last resort, the Central Military Commission could only transfer two frigates of the East China Sea Fleet to the south to fill the firepower gap of the South China Sea Fleet.

The alert level was lowered, and the remaining workers of the overhaul plant breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, but at the same time, they were a little regretful: the bricks were moved, but they did not come in handy......

In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Liuyun wore a commemorative medal of victory in the Xisha Naval Battle around his neck and returned home.

Chen Jingfeng, the backbone of the family, is still in the speedboat brigade and has not been released from the alert state, according to Liuyun's guess, it is even possible to raise the alert level: the main force of the East China Sea Fleet has been transferred south, and the burden on the head of the remaining speedboat brigade has become heavier......

Although Liuyun returned home, Liu Xiaohui did not have a good year: in the morning, the list of martyrs who died in the Battle of Xisha was announced on the radio, and there were 18 people, all of whom were officers and soldiers on the submarine hunt, and there were also political commissars and deputy captains in them......

Liuyun also had no way to comfort Liu Xiaohui: before every soldier put on a military uniform, he was ready to sacrifice for the country......

However, Liuyun knew that after the Battle of Xisha Naval Battle, in view of the various problems exposed in the war, the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, the predecessor of the General Assembly, put forward a series of new equipment development plans......

And in this series of equipment, the new frigates of the Navy and the long-range fighter-bombers of the Navy bear the brunt.
