  Chapter 356 Float Glass

   "Director Wu, do you really want me to take over?" Jiang Xiaobai asked.

   "Hmm." Wu Guofeng nodded.

   "I don't understand glass production at all." Jiang Xiaobai said.

"It doesn't matter. We will send you a deputy factory manager who understands glass production. We don't let you produce glass. We have talents like this kind of glass. But you are not easy to find. "

   Wu Guofeng said.

  Jiang Xiaobai also knew that Wu Guofeng let himself come to reform the glass factory.

  "In the process of reform, the factory director will definitely have some chaos, but this is the pain of reform."

   Jiang Xiaobai said.

   "No problem, I will support you vigorously, do it with confidence, and try to create a test field."

  Wu Guofeng nodded and said, he felt that Jiang Xiaobai used the word "pain" well, had depth and level, and talked about politics.

  Reform is the pain, just like the darkness before dawn.

   "Then I have no problem." Jiang Xiaobai said.

   "The meeting will be held after New Year's Day, and you should also go back and prepare for it, and go to work after New Year's Day."

  Wu Guofeng finished speaking, after thinking about it, and then said: "By the way, at your school, I will say hello after New Year's Day. I will arrange it for you, so you don’t have to worry about it."

   "Any questions?" Wu Guofeng asked.

   Jiang Xiaobai: "Then what..."

  Wu Guofeng: "???"

   Jiang Xiaobai: "What about the car?"

  Wu Guofeng’s face was full of black lines: "I will try to get it done for you before you come."

  The meal eaten in the cafeteria of the glass factory at noon, the food is better than the meal in the county glass factory, but it is not much better.

   is not as good as the food at the educated youth cannery.

  Of course Jiang Xiaobai and the others are in the cafeteria’s private room. The meal is different, not to mention the eight cold and eight hot meals.

  After dinner, Wu Guofeng and Jiang Xiaobai are moving to leave.

  Wu Guofeng got on the car, and then rolled down the window and ordered: “Renovate the factory manager’s office. Someone will be sent over in a while.”

  Wu Guofeng said, the middle-aged man on the side was okay, but Jin Guoyan's expression suddenly changed.

  That kind of desperate look can be seen by an individual.

  The director of the factory was transferred. He originally thought that he could hope to wipe it out, so he also found a lot of people.

  But I didn’t expect Wu Guofeng to say that he should clean up the office. Someone would pass it afterwards.

  This is obviously telling myself that there is no hope.

  Although a meeting still needs to be held, Wu Guofeng, as the leader in charge, said that the matter was settled.

  I am really unwilling. Is it because what I did today made Wu Guofeng unhappy?

   Jiang Xiaobai and Li Xiaoliu got off the car in Xidan, and Wu Guofeng sat in the car and walked away.

  What do you think? Two days later, Lao Tzu is also a car owner, Jiang Xiaobai pouted and walked into the store.

  Song Weiguo didn't know what he was going to work on, and he was not in the shop. Jiang Xiaobai followed to help on the first floor.

  Wait until the evening, Song Weiguo came back, originally went to the telecommunications bureau to discuss the matter of pulling the telephone line.

  While eating at night, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly remembered how many TEUs of glass were produced by Jin Guoyan in the glass factory during the day.

  Looking at Song Weiguo, he asked, "Old Song, what is the unit that counts as glass?"

  Song Weiguo was originally the section chief of the sales department of the county glass factory, and he knew everything about the glass factory.

   "There are more glass units. The thickness is in millimeters and the area is in square meters. The domestic output is called standard container, and the foreign one is called weight."

  "What is this standard box?" Jiang Xiaobai asked puzzledly, and Jiang Xiaobai could understand how to calculate the output of glass by weight.

  Because the thickness of the glass is different, it is impossible to plan by area.

  Thin glass is only 5 mm, while thicker glass can reach more than ten mm.

  Therefore, there must be an error in the calculation in square meters.

  But Jiang Xiaobai really didn't hear about what this standard box was.

  Song Weiguo smiled and said, “People who are not in the professional field really don’t know.

  The origin of the standard container The current "standard container" conversion factor for calculating the output of flat glass in my country was formulated in 1952 and implemented since 1953.

  At that time, there were only three large glass factories in Qinhuangdao, Shenyang, and Dalian, and they all had their own conversion coefficients for calculating glass output.

  In 1952, in order to unify the conversion coefficients of the "standard containers" of the three glass factories, in 1952, the actual production data of each factory from January to October of the year was measured..."

  Song Weiguo said slowly, Jiang Xiaobai is considered knowledgeable.

  Qinhuangdao was later known as the City of Glass, Jiang Xiaobai still knew this.

   Jiang Xiaobai asked Song Weiguo about the current status of the domestic glass industry.

   "In fact, the history of modern Chinese glass should start from the late 1950s..."

  Song Weiguo took a sip of wine and, like a storyteller, began to tell Jiang Xiaobai about the history of modern glass.

  “At the end of the 1950s, Pilkington Glass Company of the United Kingdom announced to the world that the float forming process for flat glass had been successfully developed. This was a revolution in the original grooved forming process.

  For a time, the enthusiasm of stock floats converged into a "float frenzy" that swept the world. Many countries in the world are not hesitating huge sums of money to fight for Pilkington patents,

  But Pilkington has set up a technical blockade on our country. "

  Jiang Xiaobai also frowned. In fact, it is really not easy for our country to develop into later generations, because we have nothing, and the technological blockade of our country by the West is everywhere.

   is not only the glass industry, but also a technological blockade in all aspects.

  Song Weiguo said, but he was afraid that Jiang Xiaobai would not understand, so he explained.

  "Our original glass is emerald green, sparsely shattered and has bubbles, while float glass has high transparency and flatness. There are no bubbles."

  Jiang Xiaobai nodded, only then came to understand, no wonder after rebirth, looking at the surrounding glass always feel weird, different from later life.

  "Western technology blockade means that the development and production of float glass in China must take the road of self-reliance and independent innovation, so Luoyang Glass Group began experiments in Luoyang..."

  Following Song Weiguo’s narrative, Jiang Xiaobai felt as if there was a picture scroll recording the history of modern glass in my country, slowly unfolding in front of him.

  "High-temperature glass water tends to condense when passing through the tin bath, causing uneven glass thickness. Sometimes the glass water splashes in the tin bath randomly, and workers are injured everywhere..."

   Jiang Xiaobai listened, clenched his fists tightly, and was about to be beaten when he fell behind.

"After years of experimentation and process improvements, we finally successfully built the first float glass production line three months later, and produced the first float glass in our country. Improving..."
