Chapter 3227 Stabilizing Morale

The next day, Yang Xiaotao arrived at the Ninth Department and first went to the research institute.

Last night when we went back to the courtyard house, Old Ye mentioned it to Yang Xiaotao. He said that this incident was infuriating and upsetting.

But work still needs to be done. We can't let this affect our work, nor can we put the research institute in a state of 'negative pressure,' which would be very bad.

I thought about it last night and realized that I couldn't let this affect the research progress, so I took action this morning.

"Good morning, Mr. Yang."

Jiang Ningning saw Yang Xiaotao and quickly went up to greet him.

Good morning, Ningning.

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and asked, "Where are the kids at home? Who's looking after them since they're on holiday?"

"It was sent to my mom's place."

“My aunt happened to be free, so I asked him to help look after the child.”

Jiang Ningning smiled, saying that her aunt had also met the wrong person and was still single, without even a child.

Having her help look after the children is perfect.

"Where is Yu Bei?"

"He spends all his time training in the military camp or on duty; he's not home for most of the month."

As she said this, Jiang Ningning had a hint of resentment in her voice, but a happy smile on her face.

Yang Xiaotao didn't say much. The two encountered many people along the way, and Yang Xiaotao greeted them all.

After walking for a while, Jiang Ningning headed towards the printer research institute.

But after walking a few steps, he ran up to Yang Xiaotao again and asked, "President Yang, is there any hope that our research institute can be featured on television?"

Yang Xiaotao crossed his arms and glanced at her. Jiang Ningning smiled shyly, "You can just tell me quietly, I promise I won't tell anyone else."

"really?"

Hearing Yang Xiaotao say this, Jiang Ningning knew there was hope, and quickly nodded, "Really? Absolutely!"

"Okay, don't tell anyone."

"Uh-huh!"

"You guys!"

Yang Xiaotao paused deliberately for a moment, then nodded and said, "Just get ready to go on stage!"

Jiang Ningning's eyes lit up, and then she saw Yang Xiaotao walking towards the office.

He turned around and ran excitedly towards the research institute.

When they arrived at the research institute, they ran into the director, Liu Xiangdong, and Xu Pengcheng. The two of them saw Jiang Ningning's condition and asked her what had happened.

Jiang Ningning then told Yang Xiaotao that she had come with him, and also told him everything Yang Xiaotao had said.

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiangdong suddenly laughed, "You've been fooled by President Yang."

"What? Mr. Yang lied to me?"

Jiang Ningning didn't understand, but then she heard Xu Pengcheng say, "Ah, Ran Hongbing said that the game consoles next door will at least get a consolation prize, and they can go on TV."

"You don't think we won't even get a consolation prize, do you?"

Jiang Ningning thought about it and realized it was true. So she angrily put her hands on her hips and said, "How could President Yang do this? Isn't this just fooling people?"

Liu Xiangdong smiled and said, "Alright, we need to go to the Industrial University in a bit. There's been progress on the printers there, so let's go as soon as possible."

"Go and get ready quickly."

Jiang Ningning nodded quickly and then prepared the travel documents.

At this moment, Liu Xiangdong and Xu Pengcheng exchanged a smile.

"Mr. Yang's arrival is very timely."

Liu Xiangdong remarked with a sigh, "This put the research institute at ease."

Xu Pengcheng nodded after sitting down, "In this research institute, as long as President Yang doesn't lose his composure, no one can stir up any trouble."

"Let's go, we need to work hard for the big prize the year after next."

Liu Xiangdong shook his head and laughed, "What's wrong? Don't you want this year's grand prize?"

Xu Pengcheng spread his hands, "There's still a computer, a telephone, and a pager above my head."

"With so many monsters concentrated in one Ninth Academy, do you think we can possibly win the championship?"

Liu Xiangdong shook his head, "No."

"Right, we need to know our place!"

"Yeah, I think we've always had that."

"No, Lao Liu, what do you mean?"

"It's not very interesting?"

"You must be interested."

The two were laughing and arguing when Yang Xiaotao pushed open the door and walked into Qian Lao's office.

"Teacher, you've arrived way too early."

As soon as I entered, I saw Mr. Qian typing on the keyboard in front of the computer.

The only problem is that the tapping speed is a bit slow, almost like using two fingers.

"I couldn't sleep at home, so I decided to come over early. I have a document to print out for class today."

"You've come at the right time, help me make the call."

Saying that he would make way for her, Yang Xiaotao quickly walked over and sat down.

Looking at the notebook on the table, Yang Xiaotao glanced at the text on the computer and then began typing under Qian Lao's instructions.

In comparison, Yang Xiaotao's blind typing speed is faster, and it doesn't hinder the two from communicating.

"I've heard about the aircraft design drawings. Is it serious?"

Mr. Qian sat at the table to the side and asked.

"I don't know, mainly because I don't know how much intelligence the other side has gathered. If too much has been leaked, it will be very disadvantageous for the aircraft."

"The main problem is that even though we've done so much work, it's still not enough, and we don't even know where the problem lies!"

"If this leak isn't plugged, what secrets will there be left to keep?"

Mr. Qian nodded silently to the side, then comforted him, "Technology is always advancing, and so are our methods!"

"If we use the same old methods to meet new challenges, we will suffer greatly!"

"Especially since the enemies we face are not just one or two."

At this point, Mr. Qian seemed lost in memories, pausing before continuing, "Our enemies are the whole world!"

"If there's no challenge, can it be considered a high-level game?" Yang Xiaotao was taken aback, then laughed, "If we follow what the teacher says, then we're playing a high-level game, aren't we?"

Old Qian laughed, "Otherwise what?"

"It's always better to face things positively and with a smile than to face them with a long face and a negative attitude!"

"When there's a problem, we solve it. Isn't that how people grow—by solving problems and seeking solutions?"

"Furthermore, we must trust our comrades and remain steadfast in our beliefs."

"This is very important!"

As Mr. Qian gave his instructions, Yang Xiaotao immediately nodded, "Don't worry, teacher, I understand!"

As they were talking, Yang Xiaotao finished printing the documents and then connected the printer to start printing.

"This computer is really great, it works very well!"

Mr. Qian glanced at the documents appearing on the printer, picked them up and checked them over. “They can be used in all walks of life, and their future prospects are bright.”

"The future is even more important!"

Yang Xiaotao smiled and nodded, "The advent of computers has already touched the threshold of the information age!"

"The increasing intelligence, miniaturization, and diversification of computers will accelerate demand, and the development and upgrading of basic manufacturing industries will also accelerate this trend."

"The future truly belongs to the era of information and digitalization!"

Hearing Yang Xiaotao say this, Mr. Qian was very pleased.

Although the disciple in front of him had never attended university, he was the most satisfactory student he had ever taken on.

This person is not only very smart, able to understand what he says in one go, but also able to apply what he has learned to other situations. Sometimes, even he finds his ideas enlightening.

Moreover, this disciple has a unique vision, and more importantly, he dares to do things. Once he sets his mind on something, he does it without hesitation or fear of failure.

Such decisiveness, such confidence—it's been a long time since I've seen this!

Looking at Yang Xiaotao, he became increasingly satisfied, then suddenly asked, "Xiaotao!"

"I heard that all your children are in school?"

Yang Xiaotao was a little confused at first. Surely Mr. Qian knew about his child's situation?

During Chinese New Year, people would visit each other to ask for lucky money. Why are you asking about this now?

However, Yang Xiaotao didn't think much of it and assumed it was just casual conversation, so he said directly, "Yes, Miaomiao is going to be in the first year of high school, Duanwu will be in junior high school soon, and Yueyue and Rongrong will be in the fifth grade!"

"Dudu will be starting first grade during the Chinese New Year!"

Mr. Qian nodded in agreement, then walked over to Yang Xiaotao and said, "I heard that you did well in your studies during the Dragon Boat Festival?"

Yang Xiaotao's lips twitched slightly upon hearing this, "This is... alright, I guess!"

"His mother manages all his studies."

"But this kid..."

Yang Xiaotao chuckled self-deprecatingly, "A bit ignorant and incompetent!"

Thinking about my own big son, it seems he's even more interested in playing games and cooking!

Qian Lao understood what was going on from Yang Xiaotao's expression, and he also knew about Yang Xiaotao's eldest son, Duanwu.

To say that someone is ignorant and incompetent would be an understatement. Under the guidance of teacher Ran Qiuye, their academic performance wouldn't be too bad.

"I've met Duanwu. He's a smart kid, quite clever."

"When I came last time, I even stayed at the computer research institute. By the way, Yueyue is quite hardworking. The questions she asked showed that she was really learning and growing."

"The children in the family are all quite good, but they need someone to guide and supervise them."

"It's like a sapling; if you don't take care of it and prune it, will it grow straight?"

"So you need to take good care of your children, even if it's just spending ten minutes a day checking on their studies!"

Yang Xiaotao listened humbly and accepted the answer, saying, "I understand, I'll keep this in mind!"

"This is no small matter; they need to be properly educated."

Mr. Qian gave his earnest instructions, and Yang Xiaotao nodded solemnly.

The two talked for a while, and then when it was time for Professor Qian to go to teach his students, Yang Xiaotao got up and left the office. Afterwards, he walked around to other departments.

They even went to the aircraft research institute for a while, during which they inquired about the progress of the aircraft's production and manufacturing. Wu Zhe and Wang Xushan each reported their situation, and they also called over Liu Daming, Chen Chonghan, and a few others, and the group discussed the precautions in the aircraft manufacturing process.

With designer Yang Xiaotao around, some things that were hard to understand became easy to solve, and some things that were unclear became clear.

After staying at the aircraft research institute for a while, Yang Xiaotao got up and left.

Although the leak of the design drawings was not mentioned at all, it gave everyone a sense of reassurance.

It can be said that Yang Xiaotao's actions stabilized the morale of the institute and ensured the smooth progress of the research work.

At 10:00 a.m., Yang Xiaotao arrived at General Manager Peng's conference room by car.

As soon as I entered the conference room, I saw Mr. Qin and Mr. Zhang, who had arrived earlier.

Xiao Feng and Zheng Shuangyan followed behind him.

Upon seeing Yang Xiaotao enter, the group quickly stood up to greet him.

"Mr. Yang, you're a bit late."

Old Qin joked with a smile. Yang Xiaotao stepped forward to shake hands with Old Qin and Old Zhang, and then nodded to Xiao Feng and Zheng Shuangyan before sitting down to the side.

"It's not time yet!"

Yang Xiaotao said something, then took the water cup from the staff member, and smiled, "You two arrived quite early!"

Old Zhang nodded, "We've been here for almost half an hour."

After a pause, he asked, "How's the aircraft design blueprints coming along?"

Old Qin also pricked up his ears, a worried look on his face.

Yang Xiaotao glanced at the group of people, then nodded solemnly.

"The specifics are still unclear, but the clues we've gathered suggest that the enemy is collecting information on aircraft design blueprints."

"We are organizing personnel to work hard to solve the case."

Yang Xiaotao did not choose to hide it; such things could not be hidden anyway.

"Damn it, these damned bastards, if we catch them, we should all shoot them."

Old Qin cursed, his face grim.

Yang Xiaotao sighed and then said, "This kind of thing is unavoidable as long as we are still developing."

"Especially when the other party feels threatened, they will intensify their investigation efforts."

Old Zhang nodded, "That's right. The more desperate the enemy is, the more important our work becomes."

"However, we still need to strengthen security and confidentiality; this is a task that cannot be taken lightly for even a moment."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "Yes, we've had an internal meeting about this, and we'll strengthen security measures in the future."

"At the same time, we must also pay attention to the scientific nature of our work. We can't keep using the old methods when the other side is using high technology. That would be a huge disadvantage."
