Chapter 480 Elementary School Graduation
Control the ratio of long and short fibers.
Simply put, the wood pulp fibers of coniferous trees such as pine and fir are slender, making the paper stronger and less likely to tear.
Broadleaf trees such as eucalyptus and birch have short and thick fibers, which make the paper soft and absorbent.
Long and short fibers are mixed together, generally in a ratio of 3:7 or 4:6, so that the final toilet paper is soft and absorbent, but not easily torn during use.
Step 3: Manufacturing semi-finished paper
In this process, the pulp is evenly spread on the mesh surface, then squeezed and dehydrated.
After that, it needs to be dried and further dried at high temperature.
High temperature also has a sterilizing effect.
When the dryness of the toilet paper is dehydrated to about 93%, a very important process in the production of toilet paper is required: wrinkling.
Wrinkles are essential to toilet paper.
The scraper can break the bonding force between the fibers and make them looser.
When paper is wrinkled, it becomes more elastic, thicker, more absorbent, and softer.
Single-layer semi-finished paper is too thin. Three to four layers of toilet paper saves paper and prevents your fingers from touching things you don't want to touch.
In order to facilitate tearing when using, dotted lines need to be pressed.
Cut into small rolls, then packaged and sold.
A tree, in the trials of water and fire, completely becomes one.
After the toilet paper was made, groups of workers began to work on the machines. Gu Lixia arranged a four-shift, three-day work schedule.
Work 10 days and rest 2 days.
Many people began to protest, saying, "I want to be very conscious. I only work eight hours a day, and I can take a break at noon. I think I can still work hard."
"Me too. Didn't we say we could earn foreign exchange for the country?"
"That's right, Director Gu, we are not tired. I am already an old party member. When I was young, I practiced my skills secretly without telling anyone. Now you..."
Gu Lixia pressed her hands down. "Silence! Director Yang is involved in management. If you have any questions, please consult Director Yang. If Director Yang can't solve the problem, please consult Director Lu or Director Cui. This is a temporary rule so that everyone can touch this machine."
"We're not the kind of people who look down on others. If you have a trick up your sleeve, so will I. No one can teach an apprentice. It doesn't mean that teaching an apprentice means the master will starve to death. Look at the workers we've recruited in the past two years. Has anyone been fired by the factory?"
"Improper use of a machine can reduce its lifespan from 50 years to only a dozen years. This piece of metal costs tens of thousands of yuan. What's the concept? 300 yuan a year. 3000 yuan in 10 years. How many years of work would you have to do for free to afford this machine?"
"We have veterans here too. In the military, absolute obedience is paramount. It's the same now. As a manager, as long as you manage your soldiers well, your machines won't break down. Everyone knows which country this batch of machines was purchased from."
"In the past, even if we invited an expert and treated him well, they wouldn't necessarily be able to repair it properly. No one knew when our relationship would become strained again. Only what you have in your own hands can be called technology."
"Knowledge is what you learn. If you can't write, then learn. Not being able to write is just an excuse. Starting this month, we'll have monthly exams. Everyone will start learning at the first-grade level, and after passing the exams, everyone will receive a primary school diploma."
Gu Lixia had this idea a long time ago, but never had the chance to implement it.
"It's a lifelong learning process. Don't just say I'm in my 20s, I'm in my 30s. The reason I understand these things and can talk about them is because I went to school and read a lot of books."
"Don't feel embarrassed to study. You're all from families with children, and if you study well, they'll follow your example. The most important thing is, you'll never be eliminated from the factory. Everyone knows that college entrance exams have resumed."
"After four years, everyone will graduate. They'll definitely be assigned to factories. The worst a university graduate can do is work in an office. Why? When they were young, they supported the rural areas, endured hardships, and then, with their knowledge, they entered another class: intellectuals."
"Why do we need literacy? Everyone knows the reason. When we were young, we didn't have the conditions to learn. We were all illiterate. Who would teach us? If you teach me something wrong, I'll teach you something wrong too. In the end, everything we learn is wrong."
"Everyone, please go to the school during your off-duty hours. Teachers who don't have classes will be assigned by the principal to teach in empty classrooms. Teaching will begin on May 1st. Diligence can make up for lack of talent, and the early bird catches the worm. These aren't derogatory terms; they're metaphors guiding the way."
As soon as Gu Lixia finished speaking, there was an uproar.
"If I fail the exam, will I be fired?"
"Yeah, yeah, we're that age now."
Gu Lixia clapped her hands. "Quiet! That person who thinks he can't learn it should leave now and throw your information sheet away. There are plenty of people willing to do this job. Why should we make you learn to read?"
"The most direct purpose is to assign responsibilities to individuals. We sign off every hour on who did what at what time. If we waste a batch of materials, we have to find out who was not working seriously at that time."
"Let's not even talk about the city. Even the people there are no longer needed. There are plenty of people in the countryside who are willing to move to the city. Cherish your hard-earned jobs, do your job day by day, and think about it. At the beginning of next month, you will be workers who can receive wages and receipts."
After drinking the chicken soup, Gu Lixia took his two young men, Yang Jianping, and Yang Jianping's two young men, Yang Siqi and He Chao, back to the Revolutionary Committee.
Yang Jianping then asked what Gu Lixia had just said, "Are we really going to start evaluating these people?"
Gu Lixia did think so. "It's not just the toilet paper factory. Other factories have the same minimum education requirement. By 1980, all factories will have a junior high school diploma. If you can't graduate from elementary school, you'll be assigned to guard the door, do hard labor, or even be forced to retire."
"Everyone in our unit, you organize study sessions every day and try to get everyone to go to university. Since the abolition of technical secondary schools and junior colleges in 64, no one has proposed reinstating them. What does this mean? It may never be reinstated in the future."
"So, no matter what, we need to strengthen our own people first. We still have the college entrance examination this year, and the graduate school entrance examination will resume soon."
"So, by this year, there will be another batch of graduate students. What this means is that by 1981 at the latest, the first batch of graduate students will have graduated."
