370 Come to the Happy Era
Zhou Wenqiang did not expect that he would have the opportunity to meet the first good minister of China's rule. This day is definitely worth remembering. It was the happiest and most memorable day since his time travel.
With the personal reception of this good minister of governing the country, Zhou Wenqiang, the identity of "the No. 1 Red Businessman in China", was completely set. It became natural to meet with officials and officials of various departments. With his endorsement, Mr. Ye would not have any scruples on the "South-Grain Diversion to North" and would greatly alleviate the food crisis in China, and countless living people can be said to be.
According to Yan Xin and the four elders of the South China Sea, this is a great merit.
"Wen Qiang, in the next two or three years, China will need Southeast Asian countries to provide at least 3,500 tons of grain. Is there any problem?"
"Well, I've asked more questions. Now in Southeast Asia, who doesn't know your reputation as Mr. Zhou? A few thousand tons of grain will naturally not be a problem for you. I just want to know, how did you consider Xueyuan's problem? My daughter has always been proud. In my eyes, there are no other men except me, a father. You are an exception..."
Old Ye looked at Zhou Wenqiang with a smile, and he became more and more satisfied with the young talent he talked about all day long. He had such a way to relieve the country from being overwhelmed by his young age. This is a true national sage! What is rare is that this kid is still a passionate seed, and it is said that there are four wives?
Only by being so passionate can one have a patriotic and loving the people! What is this called? This is called boundless love!
Mr. Ye is just over fifty years old this year. He is still energetic and has a romantic life. He is known as the "Flower Suit". He has such a temperament. Naturally, the more he looks at Zhou Wenqiang, the more he feels that he is a fellow disciple. He regrets that he meets him too late.
Moreover, at the age of twenty-nine, he is already the richest man in Hong Kong, Mr. Zhou, who is famous in Southeast Asia, and the winner of the Medal of the Republic... Only such a good man is worthy of his daughter!
Zhou Wenqiang sat in Old Ye's car and drove out of Haizi slowly. After most of the time, he had communicated with him, and also had some understanding of this person's temperament. He smiled and said, "Which man, who doesn't love a girl like Miss Xueyuan? Of course, I can't be an exception... But Old Ye knows that I already have four wives, and they are all legal wives? You don't object to my date with Miss Xueyuan?"
Old Ye laughed at the sound of this: "What's wrong with a few more wives? Good men should do this! I thought how many women you have, it turns out that there are only four? No more or no more! As long as you are good to Xueyuan in the future, that's it. But if my daughter suffers grievances, even if you run to the ends of the world, I will be caught back and spanked!"
Zhou Wenqiang smiled bitterly and said, "Old Ye, should you be so direct..."
"Nonsense, my Ye family general, Tiger Girl, who is still tempted with you? Didn't you say you want to live in China for a while? I'm making the decision. Let's get married before leaving, otherwise you won't want to leave the mainland!"
Good guy... Zhou Wenqiang looked at Old Ye in surprise, always feeling that his way of marrying his daughter seemed to be directing a battle without any delay.
"Old Ye, I'm afraid you have to ask Xue Yuan what she means?"
"I still have to ask, my daughter was born, why did she think that I, a father, still not know?"
Old Ye waved his big hand domineeringly: "Get out of the car!"
"get off?"
Zhou Wenqiang was stunned. What are the things that happened? Just hurry me out of the car when I said it well?
"Xueyuan's car will arrive soon and will take you to the arranged residence. You can really have problems. Xueyuan has taken a lot of effort to arrange for you to live in the Hongshankou Mechanical Repair Branch."
Mr. Ye looked at Zhou Wenqiang and became more and more satisfied with his future son-in-law. He knew he was paying attention to industry at a young age, and he was also paying attention to the steel industry that involved the country's lifeline. This kid is indeed not simple, he has a lot of things in his heart!
......
Zhou Wenqiang has caused Ye Xueyuan a big and small problem.
Although the ID card system was not yet established in mainland China in the 1960s, the management of urban and rural residents was more strict than that of later generations. Simply put, whether you live in a rural area or a city, you need a legal identity.
At this time, except for the old people born and raised, urban residents lived in their ancestral homes, those who had jobs had to live in the dormitory of the unit, and those who got married had a house to be distributed. Real estate was still a distant legend, which represented the evil capitalism.
The legal identity in rural areas is that the commune members can own a piece of self-built land, which is also a radish and a pit. Moreover, every household is connected to each other, breaking bones and tendons, and outside households must undergo the commune review and have someone guaranteed to settle down.
No one dares to rent a house these days, and that is the tail of capitalism, which is a kind of speculative act!
Stay in a hotel? Don’t be stupid. These days, it should be called a state-owned hotel. Any waiter is the host of the country. He will carefully review your unit’s letter of introduction. If there is no letter of introduction, he will be invited to the police station for a 15-day tour, and will be given a metal bracelet, and free meals.
The Hongshankou mechanic repair branch, which Zhou Wenqiang is interested in, is even more sensitive. Although he does not engage in steelmaking and surpassing Britain and the United States these days, steel companies are still an important resource output place for the country. Even if you walk around the factory a few more times, you will be targeted by the comrades in the security department, and then there is probably nothing left. People's democratic dictatorship is waiting for you.
In the end, Ye Xueyuan finally gave Zhou Wenqiang the title of "Patriotic Overseas Chinese Donor" with her father's tacit consent.
Although China has not completely opened its doors to welcome overseas Chinese back this year, it has always had various connections with patriotic overseas Chinese organizations overseas, especially in Southeast Asia. This time, the whole country encountered a food crisis. In addition to Zhou Wenqiang's North Wave Company taking action to support the overall situation in the face of danger, patriotic overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia and Southeast Asia also have many subsidized the motherland. The reason why Li Zhiheng was able to leave his life in Zhou Wenqiang is closely related to his important position in Southeast Asia.
Zhou Wenqiang, a "patriotic overseas Chinese donor", is not here to invest. The current national conditions are like this. Even if you are a patriotic overseas Chinese, the country does not allow funds from the capitalist world to be invested in state-owned enterprises. However, if it is just a donation rather than an investment, it can still be allowed after review by superiors.
In addition, donors will have the right to temporarily live in the donated company for a period of time. It is said that they are supervising the use of this fund, which actually represents the future development intention of some people above.
Although the Chinese country, which has been closed for many years, has not shown any signs of loosening, some knowledgeable people in China have begun to plan for the future. These patriotic overseas Chinese donors may have the possibility of investing in domestic companies in a few years or more than ten years later...
Zhou Wenqiang knew that four or five years later, these knowledgeable people would be devastatingly hit by a national movement, which was regrettable, but the seeds of hope were successfully planted from then on. After more than ten years, they finally turned into a spring breeze of reform and blew all over the land of China.
This is like the pain before childbirth, the suffering that China must go through. Even if it is him, it is difficult to turn the tide when facing the upcoming changes in the great times, so he can only follow the trend.
It is useless to think about things a few years later. At present, with the help of Ye Xueyuan, he will soon move into the staff dormitory of Hongshankou Mechanical Repair Factory as a patriotic overseas Chinese donor. It is said that he will get the best dormitory, with double rooms inside and outside, a private kitchen of two square meters, and is very close to the public toilet outside, less than 30 meters away...
During his temporary residence, he can visit all workshop departments of Hongshankou Steel Plant and the mechanics branch at will, and be qualified to enter the employee canteen. If he accidentally catches a cold and has a fever, he can still enjoy public medical care like workers.
But there is no salary to receive. The monthly salary of the eighth-level worker who is known as the "big country craftsman" in this era is only 126 yuan, and the average old worker only costs 30 or 40 yuan. Zhou Wenqiang feels that this little money doesn't seem to be attractive to him.
"Tsk tsk, seeing you laugh so happily, it means you need to live longer?"
Ye Xueyuan took him to the door of the mechanics and repairing branch and stuffed a letter of introduction and a stack of great unity into his hands: "Your 100,000 yuan donation has been included in the factory's account. Take the letter of introduction and go to the factory manager to check in and get meal tickets or something. In addition, this is 2,000 yuan, you can use pocket money on your body. Don't think it's too little. It's easy to get jealous if you have too much money. I'm not afraid of you being in danger. What I'm afraid of being those little thieves who steal the dog will be broken by you, and in the end you have to alarm the public and the police."
"By the way, I don't think you're sick either. Don't learn from those young workers if you're sick. If you're sick or not, run to the infirmary in the branch, hum..."
He hummed a few times, gave Zhou Wenqiang a light look, and the girl jumped into the military jeep and left.
......
The mainland in the 1960s was a world of blue and green intertwined. Blue coarse cloth work clothes were the most common color in this world. Occasionally, there were a few people wearing green military uniforms, and they must be celebrities from the factory militia or security department. In this era, they could wear green and a green hat were the most fashionable outfits, and the most beautiful scenery was everywhere they went.
Only girls who love beauty the most and have a wealthy family will change into shirts and long skirts with plain flowers after get off work, and walk among the crowd like blooming flowers.
Zhou Wenqiang wore a British overalls, jacket, and a baseball cap. He didn't look like a good person no matter how he looked, which made the old man in the communication room look at him up and down for a long time. Fortunately, the letter of introduction was tough enough, with official seals from the three-level official palaces at the provincial, municipal and district levels. The old man hesitated for a while and let it go. Looking at Zhou Wenqiang's back, he muttered, "Looking like a young master of capitalism, is this a patriotic overseas Chinese?"
Walking in the factory area of the mechanics branch, the workers all pointed at Zhou Wenqiang. Fortunately, he was not a girl, otherwise the youth workers might not whistle him.
Zhou Wenqiang was like walking into a black and white world with extremely simple colors, and he felt like he had crossed the times again, but his mood became calmer, feeling the simplicity, the slowness, and the happiness of the past.
In this era, the mainland was indeed short of materials, and people were still pursuing fullness, eating well, eating healthy without any awareness. The food crisis spread across the country since last year has made it a luxury to be able to eat full every day. But in Zhou Wenqiang's view, this is an era of extreme material scarcity but full of happiness.
Confucius said, "Don't worry about the lack of people but the unevenness." The greatest misfortune of mankind began with inequality. In the era of material richness in later generations, the gap between the rich and the poor gradually became a gap in the vast world. Comparison became a wind, and waste was no longer shameful. Morality was abandoned by people in the face of money and interests... This gap even extended to children and grandchildren, education was unfair, and class solidification... People were full and well, but their hearts were tired.
In later generations, entrepreneurs did not assume the historical responsibilities they should bear. They became capital, evolved into nobles, and established the "evil dragon family" passed down from generation to generation! They devoured industries like locusts, making a fortune themselves, but left a mess.
Compared to the later generations that looked like purgatory, the people in this era may not have clothes filled with wardrobes or chicken, duck, fish and meat filled with dining tables. They can only watch a movie for half a year, but they have a sense of happiness; because they don’t need to worry about clothes filled with cabinets but don’t have to worry about the three highs physical fitness, and don’t need to envy the domineering presidents in movies and TV, because the biggest currency in this era is called ‘Great Unity’...
Zhou Wenqiang felt that he had not come in vain. When his half foot was about to enter the ranks of capitalists, he needed to have a thorough spiritual baptism in this world. This simple world, this hungry world, can really help him to fast in the last time, and eliminate all the "toxins" in his body and brain.
I like this place.
Zhou Wenqiang was very sure of his feelings, so when he saw Liu Feng, the director of the mechanics branch, he smiled very happily, like a child who got a lollipop.
"Are you Comrade Zhou Wenqiang?"
Liu Feng pushed down his glasses and looked at Zhou Wenqiang carefully three times. He seemed not satisfied and wanted to see this patriotic overseas Chinese clearly.
This is the Hong Kong overseas Chinese who donated a full 100,000 yuan. My God! Liu Feng felt his legs were a little weak. After all, he was the factory director. He had also watched several internal films and had seen some worlds. But when he thought of the huge 100,000 yuan that Zhou Wenqiang had taken out, he felt his throat dry. If so much money was exchanged for one yuan, it would probably fill the entire workshop, right?
When he shook hands with Zhou Wenqiang, his hands were trembling slightly: "Wenqiang... Comrade, I have received the notice, welcome to Hongshankou Mechanical Repair Branch, I...you..."
Zhou Wenqiang smiled and said, "Director Liu, I'm here to check in and I need to receive canteen tickets or something. By the way, I still need some food coupons. I heard that even if I go to a state-owned restaurant for dinner, I need to pay a certain amount of food coupons?"
"In addition, you need to assign a piece of clothing to me. My outfit is a bit eye-catching and will be misunderstood by my colleagues."
"Yes, yes, Comrade Wen Qiang is really careful. I will arrange for you to prepare two sets of work clothes, check-in procedures, etc. I will take you to handle it. If you are not familiar with the place, I am afraid it will be difficult to find the corresponding department in charge."
Liu Feng was the first time a "patriotic overseas Chinese donor" like Zhou Wenqiang was in the factory. The head of the factory was sweating nervously.
With Liu Feng coming out in person, Zhou Wenqiang ran around the office building like a giant panda. Finally, he got all the dormitory keys, work clothes, temporary grain books, food coupons, etc. Liu Feng gradually became familiar with him and was not too nervous. While leading him downstairs to the employee dormitory outside the factory, he smiled and introduced, "Comrade Wen Qiang, the dormitory arranged for you is both inside and outside, especially closest to the public toilet..."
When he reached the southwest corner of the first floor of the office building, Liu Feng paused and pointed to the white door that had long queues: "This is the infirmary of our factory. I'm not afraid of you making fun of it. Dr. Ding has very good conditions and has no boyfriend. These kids are looking for excuses to see a doctor all day long. Zhang Dazhuang, you are as strong as a cow. What are the diseases? If you come here for excuses to affect Dr. Ding's work, I will deduct your bonus!"
Seeing the factory director getting angry, a group of young workers and mice slipped away like cats. The door of the infirmary was cleared up immediately. Zhou Wenqiang smiled and looked inside the door, and a tall figure wearing a white doctor's uniform jumped into his eyes.
Ding Qiunan turned his head and looked at Zhou Wenqiang, his eyes stayed on his face for two seconds, then turned his head expressionlessly, and said in a sweet voice: "Next..."
