Chapter 93 Idealism
Throughout the morning, Xu Qiang was the focus of heated discussion in the chemical workshop. Colleagues, both known and unknown to him, came forward to congratulate him, leaving Xu Qiang a little overwhelmed.

It is impossible to say that these people are not jealous of Xu Qiang. After all, this time, Xu Qiang will not only get a bonus of 800 yuan, but also have a great chance to become a regular employee. Especially the latter, many old workers who have worked in the factory for more than ten years have not yet solved the problem of converting from farmers to non-farmers, so their jealousy towards Xu Qiang is absolutely deep-rooted.

But jealousy aside, people are more realistic. Many veteran workers in the workshop understand that after Xu Qiang wins the award, he will definitely be valued by the factory. He may even be promoted as an exception in the future. This is all very likely. After all, the factory has always attached great importance to military-to-civilian projects in recent years. Employees who won this award in previous times have now been promoted. At worst, they have become model workers. Their future is bright, and it is undoubtedly the most appropriate time to curry favor with them.

So almost in the blink of an eye, Xu Qiang went from an unknown new worker in the workshop to a celebrity who was the center of attention.

However, compared with the flattery of the workers to Xu Qiang, the team leader Gao Bo did not say a word to Xu Qiang and went straight back to the dispatch room to read the newspaper. As for the director Sun Yulin, he was not in the workshop at this time. He was notified early in the morning to go to the meeting in the office building.

However, Xu Qiang himself seemed very calm about winning the award. He continued to work as usual, observing and studying the data of the production line and various instruments in the workshop, and took out a notebook to write and draw on it.

Now that the award has been won, the factory will certainly renovate the workshop next after receiving funding from higher authorities. Since the factory currently has no chemical talent, Xu Qiang will definitely be arranged to participate in the project renovation. It is also very necessary to make preparations in advance.

Although the equipment in this chemical workshop is old, Xu Qiang believes that it is an excellent place for him to display his talents.

As a chemical engineering expert, Xu Qiang has an idealistic heart.

It is impossible for private individuals to start a chemical company these days, not only because of funding issues, but also because of restrictions from national policies.

But if he could be contracted to take over this workshop, Xu Qiang had enough confidence that it could quickly turn losses into profits, and even make it the most profitable small and medium-sized chemical company in the country!
This is definitely not because Xu Qiang thinks too highly of himself, but because he has mastered many product formulas and production processes that are ahead of this era. Many things are technologically blank in China, and the country even spends a lot of foreign exchange every year to import them from abroad.

This is also the most important reason why Xu Qiang would rather stay in the factory even though his salary is dozens of times less than doing business outside. It is because Xu Qiang needs such a large platform to realize his ambitions and aspirations that he failed to achieve in his previous life and to obtain levels and honors that he has never reached before.

But since he works in a state-owned enterprise, everything must be done step by step according to the rules. Only when Xu Qiang reaches a certain position in the factory can he truly use this platform as a stage to realize his ambitions.

"Have you finished your work for the day?"

Just as Xu Qiang was holding the notebook to read the meter, Gao Bo appeared behind him silently and asked with a serious face.

"It's just six tons of coal. I've already moved it. If you don't believe me, you can look at the warehouse records. It's all written there." Xu Qiang turned his head to glance at Gao Bo and said casually.

"There are a lot of tasks in the factory today. You need to go to warehouse No. 2 and move two tons of coal here. You need to be quick and make sure you finish it before leaving get off work." Gao Bo said to Xu Qiang in a commanding tone.

"Since the production task is heavy, we should all work together. Why are so many people idle and you only look for me?" Xu Qiang pointed to several workers who were drinking water against the wall on the other side of the workshop and said to Gao Bo.

If other temporary workers encountered this situation, they would just go to work obediently, but Xu Qiang has never been a person who accepts things passively.

In his opinion, people always pick on the weak, and if he doesn't have a temper, he will be bullied more often in the future.

Moreover, compared to the past period of time, Xu Qiang now has more confidence. In the past, he was worried that he would be fired as a temporary worker, but now, as he won the first prize in the military-to-civilian product solicitation activity and went to the province with the factory director to attend a meeting, he knows that the factory will need to use him in the future, so when facing Gao Bo, he is not afraid.

Moreover, Xu Qiang could tell at a glance that Gao Bo was clearly trying to establish his authority and pour some cold water on himself who had just won the award. "They have their own business, you don't have to worry about this!" Gao Bo looked unhappy and continued, "Don't think you can get cocky just because you won the award. As long as you are in our chemical workshop for one more day, you must abide by the rules and regulations here!"

"But our workshop has always stipulated that the daily workload for porters is six tons, and I have finished the work." Xu Qiang spread his hands and said.

"I have one last question for you, are you going to do it or not?"

"I told you, I'm done with today's work!"

"Okay, okay! Then you wait!" Gao Bo sneered when he heard that, and turned to walk towards the workshop door.

However, before he could walk a few meters, Director Sun Yulin suddenly appeared from the workshop door and walked over quickly.

"Captain Sun, you've come just in time!" Gao Bo immediately went up to Sun Yulin and said, "I was just looking for you..."

"Where's Xu Qiang?"

"Are you looking for Xu Qiang? He's right here." Gao Bo pointed at Xu Qiang standing behind the boiler and said, "I was just about to talk to you about him..."

"We can talk later if there is anything else." Sun Yulin interrupted Gao Bo and said to Xu Qiang, "Xiao Xu, stop working for now. Come with me to the Personnel Department."

"What are you going to the Personnel Department for?" Xu Qiang was stunned when he heard that.

"You'll know when the time comes." Sun Yulin smiled and continued, "After completing the formalities, I'll take you to a place where you'll work from now on."

"Work?" Upon hearing this, Gao Bo on the side was also stunned.

"Okay, let's go." After Xu Qiang said this, he was about to leave the workshop with Sun Yulin.

"What the hell is going on?"

Gao Bo couldn't help but ask.

"Please record Xu Qiang's attendance today. He may not return to the workshop this afternoon." Sun Yulin said, but he seemed to remember something, so he continued: "By the way, I have something else to do at home tonight. I won't go to Liang Baoguo's dinner. Please tell him."

After Sun Yulin finished speaking, he turned around and left with Xu Qiang.
