On this road leading to Sijiu City, there were cars one after another, densely lined up in a long queue.
They drove out from the direction of Sijiucheng, passed by Cao Weidong's Red Star car, and then quickly disappeared from his sight.
Since when have there been so many cars in China?
Moreover, the models and styles of these cars are all different, and they seem to be produced by different manufacturers.
Cao Weidong felt a trance in his heart.
He thought he had traveled through time again.
What I saw along the way, the doubts in my heart were not relieved, but became more and more serious.
In this way, we continued driving for three hours.
Finally, at the end of this road, we can finally see the majestic outline of Sijiu City.
Cao Weidong suppressed the doubts in his heart for the time being.
I drove the Red Star car along the highway for a while and soon passed the steel rolling mill.
This is where he used to work.
Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar steel rolling mill, Cao Weidong couldn't help but feel a bit sad.
It happens to be the time for employees to get off work at noon and go home to rest.
A group of employees wearing work clothes and gray hats walked in twos and threes towards the dormitory building.
Because this is the only road into the city.
So Cao Weidong slowed down and followed the employees slowly.
The employees noticed a car following behind them, greeted each other a few times, and quickly dispersed to both sides to make way for them.
Cao Weidong rolled down the window and said with a smile:
"Thanks, brothers."
The employees quickly replied.
"It's okay, it's okay, the road is only so wide, you go through it first."
"Okay."
Cao Weidong looked at them.
It’s as if I’ve seen my past self.
At that time, he and Xu Aiguo also returned to Sijiu City along this road.
Cao Weidong secretly sighed a few times, casually scattered a few packs of Peony cigarettes, and then drove away in the Red Star sedan.
.......
"Who is this person? He can just give out a few packets of peonies. He is too generous."
"No, this cigarette can cover my salary for several days."
The employees happily took apart the packs of Peony cigarettes and divided them.
Everyone got a few.
One of the dark-faced employees nudged his companion with his elbow and handed over his Peony cigarette.
"Zhang Heng, why are you so stunned? This is your share, take it."
"Oh, okay."
Zhang Heng suddenly came back to his senses.
He took out a cigarette and lit it, and carefully put the other cigarettes into his pocket like his companion.
The companion asked curiously.
"By the way, what were you thinking about just now?"
Zhang Heng said doubtfully.
"Did you feel that the man driving the car just now looked familiar? I feel like I have seen him somewhere."
The companion sneered.
"You can pull him down. He is driving a Red Star sedan, a car specially used for cadres... It means that the other party is a leading cadre, and his rank is not low. Where can you meet him as an employee?"
Zhang Heng nodded.
I didn’t say anything.
The group of people talked while walking.
I don’t know who started the conversation and started talking about the food standards in the factory.
Someone complained.
“The food in the factory cafeteria is too heavy lately. It’s just vegetables every day, and you can’t even see a piece of meat.”
"Who says it's not the case? If you ask me, the buyers in our factory are just a bunch of people who do nothing."
Zhang Heng’s companions also joined the discussion with great interest.
"You are not caught up in the good times. In the past, our factory could eat meat every day, and sometimes we also had game. It tasted very delicious. But you are new to the job and don't know much about it...
.."
It was as if a bolt of lightning flashed across my mind.
Zhang Heng jumped up violently.
"I know who he is!"
The companions were startled by Zhang Heng's startled appearance.
"Who are you? Look how excited you are."
Zhang Heng said with a serious face.
"I know who the person who drove the car just now is. He is an employee of our factory."
The employees were stunned for a moment.
Is there still such an awesome person in our factory?
But how come we don’t know?
Zhang Heng didn't show off and said directly.
"He is the legend of our factory, Comrade Cao Weidong, the former director of the logistics department."
After hearing what Zhang Heng said, several old employees also reacted.
"Holy crap, it's him, no wonder..."
In the steel rolling mill, the legendary story of Cao Weidong has been circulating.
It can be said that although Cao Weidong is no longer in the arena, there are still stories of Cao Weidong in the arena.
When he was still an apprentice, he dared to forcefully challenge the deputy director of the logistics department, sack him and replace him.
After becoming the deputy director of the Logistics Department, he did a lot of practical things, and smoothly replaced the then factory director and several directors.
He can be described as a typical representative of a person who is ruthless and doesn’t talk much.
The most important thing is that he is still a genius in multi-line development.
Participated in the development of the Red Star sedan and is known as the father of domestically produced sedans.
He was transferred to another place as the factory director and made the factory prosperous. Even in Sijiu City, the news was heard, and relevant reports were published in internal newspapers.
The employees immediately beat their chests and stamped their feet, feeling regretful in their hearts.
If he had recognized the other party early, who would have asked for several packs of cigarettes? He would have asked Cao Weidong to sign anything.
Then find a master craftsman to make the signature sheet and hang it at home.
How respectable is it to show off to everyone you meet?
.......
At this time, Cao Weidong had already driven into Sijiu City.
Compared with the county seat or Tongquan City, Sijiu City is more prosperous, and you can see many cars on the road.
Cao Weidong slowed down.
I drove to Jinghong Auto Repair Factory by familiar means.
However, when Cao Weidong arrived at Jinghong Auto Repair Factory, he found that the iron door was closed tightly and the lock was on the door. It looked like the building was empty.
Cao Weidong got off the car, walked to the iron gate and looked inside.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
There is a lot of dust on the ground.
I guess it's been a while since I moved out.
"Moving? How come I didn't hear Director Tian mention it in the letter?"
Cao Weidong was a little puzzled.
He looked around.
I happened to see a few elderly people sitting opposite and sunbathing, and they looked over curiously.
Cao Weidong asked politely.
"Excuse me, I would like to ask, where has Jinghong Auto Repair Factory moved?"
"Who are you?"
The elderly people did not immediately answer Cao Weidong's question.
Cao Weidong introduced himself.
"I am a customer of Jinghong Auto Repair Factory. I placed an order before and asked the factory to help me produce a few cars. Now come and take a look."
"It's strange, does a big factory like Jinghong Automobile Factory still accept this kind of work?"
Cao Weidong was keenly aware that these people used the name "Jinghong Automobile Factory" instead of "Jinghong Automobile Repair Factory".
Although there is only one word difference, the meaning is completely different.
Before he could think about it, an old man said.
"Jinghong Auto Repair Factory has moved away long ago, and now they are in the Automobile Industrial Park on the southern outskirts of the city."
"Auto...industrial park?"
Cao Weidong opened his mouth in surprise.
.......
The so-called automobile industrial park is actually a large yard surrounded by high walls, with several different automobile factories inside.
Cao Weidong drove to the entrance of the industrial park.
I saw the names of these automobile factories written on the plaques at the entrance of the automobile industrial park.
"Jinghong Automobile..."
"Bj one breath..."
"Beijing and Guangzhou..."
"Beijing-Tianjin Automobile..."
Among them, the plaque of Jinghong Automobile Factory is the largest and is worthy of the name C.
Cao Weidong sighed.
"It turned out to be an industrial park jointly established by several automobile manufacturers, perhaps to share the resources of Jinghong Automobile Factory. This kind of thing can be done at this time."
Although the planned economy of the national economy has been criticized.
But it is undeniable.
In terms of resource allocation and utilization, it is far stronger than the free economic system.
Actually.
The two belong to economic operation systems in different environments, and it is difficult to make analogies.
There is a duty station at the entrance of the Automobile Industrial Park.
But when they saw that Cao Weidong was driving a Red Star sedan, these people let him go without checking his ID.
Cao Weidong drove into the automobile industrial park without any obstruction, opened the door and got out, and was immediately stunned by the scene in front of him.
In Nuoda's automobile industrial park, everything you look at is full of people.
These people wear different work clothes.
At this time, they were all gathered together without any gaps, and they were discussing work in a lively manner.
You must know that there is also a chain of contempt among employees.
Especially among peers.
They look down upon each other.
Bring these people together, communicate with each other, and learn from each other.
Cao Weidong didn't even dare to think about this.
But I didn’t expect to see it with my own eyes here.
Cao Weidong was a little unbelievable.
I have only been away from Sijiu City for a few months, how come there have been such big changes?
He decided to find Director Tian to answer his doubts.
Cao Weidong packed up the Red Star car, carried his backpack, and followed the signs and walked towards the gate of Jinghong Auto Repair Factory.
"Stop, who are you? You can come here... Dean Cao?"
The gatekeeper blinked his eyes and suddenly invited Cao Weidong over enthusiastically.
When Cao Weidong saw him, he also smiled.
"Isn't this Lao Wang? How is your health lately?"
Lao Wang is a retired veteran. After he changed his job, he was assigned to Jinghong Auto Repair Factory as the section chief of the security department. At that time, Cao Weidong often went to chat with Lao Wang with a teapot. The two had a good relationship.
Lao Wang said with a smile.
"It's okay. I'm in good health. Just wait, I'll notify the factory director and them. They will be very happy to see you."
After a while, Director Tian came out with Ao Sanyuan, Zheng Dongming and others.
Cao Weidong also laughed.
They are all acquaintances.
Meeting acquaintances was particularly cordial. Director Tian invited Cao Weidong into the Jinghong Automobile Factory to introduce him to the situation in the factory.
It’s similar to what Cao Weidong guessed.
Since the three production lines were settled in Jinghong, Jinghong has transformed into a manufacturer of domestic red star cars and foreign trade domestic cars. After the factory director asked the superior authorities for instructions, the name of the factory was changed to "Jinghong Automobile Factory"
.
When Cao Weidong asked about this automobile industrial park and why the five automobile factories could live in harmony, Director Tian smiled.
