Long Yaohua and others returned empty-handed, which had no impact on the development of the base.

The 359 tank test project has formed a complete plan, which needs to be implemented during a long journey. The above also approved this test that lasts thousands of kilometers.

On the first night of National Day in 1985, all units at the base were on holiday, and even the technical R&D personnel who were busy working overtime to catch up on progress were driven out of the office and the laboratory.

The base is holding a National Day party, but the people from the management committee, some from the garrison regiments, some Pakistani armored soldiers, technicians, and even some technicians from Hongqi Machinery Factory were all lined up neatly on the railway station platform where the base is not big.

Behind them were two tanks covered with tarpaulin, construction vehicles, logistics support vehicles, several Jiefang cars carrying daily necessities and an oil tanker truck.

Everything will be transported by train, and will drive northwest through Jiayuguan Railway Station. When you arrive in Dunhuang, you will start to cross the desert in the southwest.

In October, the climate will not be too cold.

But it will always cross the desert and move towards the Himalayas.

In winter, the harshest time of the northwest desert.

On the Jiefang Automobile, there are not only parts that need to be replaced by the 359 tank and the cold-proof materials of these technicians who are supporting the tank.

Some substances need to be continuously replenished on the road until they enter Pakistan.

"Comrades, starting tonight, you will have a more difficult time..." Zheng Yucheng looked at the team wearing various costumes in front of him, but arranged neatly, and said with a solemn expression, "The 359 tank's finalization will depend on this test. This time the task is very heavy and the conditions are very difficult. Deserts, plateaus, cool cold, etc. will always accompany you. If anyone wants to withdraw, it is still time, and the base will not add a note to the file because of withdrawing..."

The team in front stood tall.

No one is scared away by the harsh environment that will face in the future.

No one left.

"Very good. Everyone will suffer a lot along the way! I'm waiting for your good news in the base. When I come back, I will personally put big red flowers on everyone!" Zheng Yucheng didn't say much.

The journey spans thousands of kilometers.

Along the way, people may die.

Xie Kai looked at Zheng Yucheng and curled his lips. The old guy wanted to use the honor of a big red flower to send everyone away, but he couldn't do such a thing.

Xie Kai stood up under everyone's puzzled eyes.

"Thank you very much for your efforts in the 359 tank project. But I hope that during the testing process, don't replace the parts before they are broken in order to obtain good data and parameters. The 359 project is related to the life and death of the base! Therefore, the authenticity of the data is very important and the future of the entire project." Xie Kai said this and prepared for a while.

No one thinks that fakes need to be made during the testing process.

Xie Kai, all the testers of 359 projects know each other.

Although they do not have any relevant positions, they know that there is 359 workshops.

"Comrade Xie Kai, please rest assured that even if our lives are not there, the tank will continue to exist; even if we forget who we are, there will be no error in the data." It was not someone else who said this, but Feng Guozhi.

Xie Kai once snatched his tank.

Now, let him become a tester for the 359 tank.

"I believe in everyone's professional ethics, and more so in our technicians' strict prohibition on technology. I just tell you that even if the tank is uncertain, we cannot fake data. We are R&D units, and once the data cost is made, it will even affect the lives of many comrades! On the battlefield, people will never give people the opportunity to reflect. What they pay will be the price of life!" Xie Kai said seriously.

It's not that he wants to talk nonsense.

Instead, I am afraid that everyone will not care about these things for the future of the project in a harsh environment.

Many things are details, but they are deadly on the battlefield.

The main customer of the 359 tank is Iraq, and their use environment is the desert in the Middle East.

"When everyone comes back, there will be applause, flowers and honors. Those who should be promoted will be promoted, and a point of bonus should be given. We cannot tell people that the base is too stingy and use a big red flower to fool people. I know that everyone looks down on material rewards, but there will be no less bases! Director Zheng's highest person in charge of the base will naturally not talk about material conditions or anything..." Xie Kai rarely gave Zheng Yucheng a face.

Until now, there is nothing to say.

Zheng Yucheng waved his hand directly and "Go away."

Everyone began to move towards their own position.

After everyone boarded the train, especially the escort personnel were in place, the train began to slowly drive eastward.

"You can't say it's so vulgar? This is a defilement of them!" Zheng Yucheng's most despises is that Xie Kai always puts conditions.

359 project team testers, who went for material things?

"Yes, Xiao Xie, everyone did not go for material rewards. Everyone knows how dangerous and difficult the journey is. You have to use material to desecrate them." Wang Guilin expressed dissatisfaction with Xie Kai's behavior.

This journey, at the harshest time, you may face testing the performance of the 359 tank in a low temperature environment of more than minus 30 degrees Celsius.

When the base is coldest in winter, it is only minus twenty degrees below zero.

There is heating in the room.

"People are needed, and material rewards are also indispensable." Xie Kai said calmly, "If you don't make any requests, the base must not be ignored. Under such conditions, everyone is willing to go, not for material rewards, but for national defense!"

Xie Kai knew what Zheng Yucheng and others thought.

Once upon a time, he came here like that.

Leaders often make various promises, draw a pancake as big as a sky, and end up working tiringly, completing the task, and eating nothing in their mouths, at most it is just a sesame seed.

Xie Kai doesn't want everyone to be disappointed.

He came out of the grassroots level and knew clearly what the grassroots level personnel wanted.

It’s not that everyone doesn’t contribute to the national table, but ends up working hard to achieve results, and that’s the leaders, grassroots personnel, who give some bonuses, and wear big red flowers, and then you’ll finish it.

In the end, more and more people were disappointed, so there was a saying that it was better to sell tea eggs than to build missiles.

Xie Kai doesn't want it to be heartbreaking.

In the entire system, he does not have that ability, at least 404 will not have such a situation.

"You kid, you're messing around!" Qi Zhiyuan finally squeezed out just this sentence.

"Do you want the entire base to be like you, greedy and selfish?" Zheng Yucheng asked dissatisfiedly.

"What is greed and selfishness?" Xie Kai asked disdainfully, "I don't think there is anything wrong with asking for my own value the most."

Seeing that Xie Kai and Zheng Yucheng were choking again, Wang Guilin quickly stopped him, "Okay, the train has left, let's go back to see the party."

"That's a big deal!" Zheng Yucheng was a little upset.

Xie Kai's awareness problem has always been a headache.

Don’t let Xie Kai become the successor of the base?

This is not suitable.

Become the successor of the base. Everything has to be considered in your own interests. How can you lead the team?

Everyone needs to ask the organization for honors, houses, or even money.

There are tens of thousands of people at the base.

"Old Zheng, I shouldn't say anything, don't take this matter seriously. The society outside is changing now, and everyone is not the time, although they are dedicating to the country. As base managers, everyone's needs should be taken into account." Xie Kai looked at Zheng Yucheng and had no intention of giving up.

I won't mention it if it's not the one below.

But for a long time, the people below were not valued at all, and any opinions they made may not be taken seriously.

Since the base is going to undergo in-depth reforms, everyone must be more aware of belonging.

"Why do many people want to transfer away now? Our place is too remote!" Xie Kai looked at Zheng Yucheng's angry face, "This place is not located in the village in front and the store behind. The nearest city is Jiayuguan, one hundred and twenty kilometers!"

Zheng Yucheng stopped talking.

The rest of the management committee also lowered their heads.

What Xie Kai said is the truth.

"We once responded to the national call to the base for the sake of national defense. For decades, they have not made any requests. But what about now? The national strategic focus has shifted and the country has begun to develop its economy. In recent years of reform and opening up, many people outside have become rich." Xie Kai said, "Even, the outside world has begun to say that those who are engaged in missiles are not as promising as those who sell tea eggs!"

The reform and opening up, with foreign-invested enterprises and foreign cultures entering China, has the greatest impact on the traditional and conservative ideas in China.

"Why did anyone want to leave before? Don't they want to continue to contribute to the national defense cause? No! But they are not sure about the future!" Xie Kai's tone became a little heavy, "In the base, most of the people who apply to leave are technicians and managers, and ordinary positions, and some people also want to leave."

"Why did they leave?"

"The base is divided into houses, and first of all the management teams, and then the technicians and ordinary technical workers have to wait! Why don't they leave?"

The situation in the base was that I used to eat a big pot, but now with the reform, everything is no longer considered based on the level.

Instead, consider each person’s contribution to the entire project.

Even a cleaner can be taken seriously as long as he does his work.

"If you don't raise their needs, we can't think that everyone has no needs!" Xie Kai has considered a lot these days. "As a manager, you must first consider your worries. Only by paying attention to them can they do their best!"
Chapter completed!
