Chapter 211 Even though I knew this trick, I was still willing to accept it
Section Chief Li, the dispatching section of the Municipal Post Office, also has a copy of "Oriental Metropolis Daily" on his desk.
Several colleagues surrounding him were looking at the cartoon in the newspaper.
"Hey, are we all drawn to the sky?"
"Including this one, this is already the third time!"
"Author Jiang Shan? Well, the painting is quite pleasing."
"Did you all hear about it? Recently, when the postmen of our unit were walking through the streets, people started to tell them how hard they were doing."
"What I heard is that our postmen have become enthusiastic towards the people, for fear of delaying their good image in the newspapers."
"This is a good phenomenon," Section Chief Li thought to himself for a while, "I just don't know how long it can last!"
"I guess it has something to do with the cartoons in this newspaper."
"That is……"
Before he finished speaking, the phone on the desk rang.
Soon, Section Chief Li walked into the director's office with his dispatch book under his arm.
"Director Liang, you are in a good mood today!"
Looking at the smiling Director Liang, Section Chief Li also laughed: "This is the dispatch book you asked for."
"Bring it to me and have a look,"
From the date to the time, Bureau Liang flipped through page after page: "Have you read today's Oriental Metropolis Daily?"
"Not only did I see it," Section Chief Li's mind was spinning quickly: "Before coming, I also held a small meeting specifically for it."
"Oh?" Director Liang glanced at him unexpectedly: "What's the result?"
"According to colleagues, in recent days the people have told our postmen how hard they have worked, and the comrades on the front line seem to have begun to pay attention to their words and deeds."
"This is a good thing." Bureau Liang did not expect this. He pointed to the door and said:
"The work unit has been emphasizing it and posted a lot of slogans, but the people at the counter just ignored the masses. Because of this, our suggestion box has never stopped."
"Who says it's not the case? It's a pity that the comics in Oriental Metropolis Daily didn't draw them..."
"..." Director Liang looked at the dispatch book in front of him: "I think I can try that thing you mentioned last time."
"What about sending additional manpower to Oriental Metropolis Newspaper?"
"Take a closer look," Director Liang pointed at the dispatch book and said:
"The pick-up time for Oriental Metropolis Daily is 6:30 in the morning. So even if it is the nearest newsstand, it is good to see it at 7 in the morning. What about places further away?"
"If you put "Oriental Metropolis Daily" into the first-class newspaper, you can enter the scope of picking up the newspaper at 5 a.m."
"Are you having trouble?"
"It's a coincidence. Our post office recently hired a new group of postmen, so there shouldn't be any problems."
"If there is a problem, just move people from other places," Director Liang knocked on the table and explained: "Pujiang Daily, Pujiang Industrial and Commercial News... as long as it is not the morning newspaper, you can move it."
"Understood," Section Chief Li nodded immediately: "I'll make arrangements right away."
"After making arrangements, remember to say hello to Oriental Metropolis Daily."
"I think so too," Section Chief Li continued, "Bureau Liang, Editor-in-Chief Wei of Pujiang Daily called our section yesterday."
"Pujiang Daily? What's wrong with him?"
"They want us to post the Pujiang Daily's subscription form at the top of the post office's subscription column."
"So that's why," Director Liang smiled slightly, and then pondered for a while:
"You are going to make some arrangements. The subscription notice of "Oriental Metropolis Daily" must be posted in the most conspicuous place on the subscription columns of various post offices in the city..."
"Huh?" Section Chief Li thought he had misheard: "Who posted it? Oriental Metropolis Daily?"
"That's right," Bureau Liang nodded affirmatively: "It's "Oriental Metropolis Daily"."
"Good leadership!"
Looking at the leaving figure of Section Chief Li, Director Liang once again looked at the "Oriental Metropolis Daily" on the table.
He was indeed surprised by Oriental Metropolis Daily's move to publish three cartoons in three consecutive days.
However, the veteran cadre's heart is as clear as a bright mirror, how can he not understand the other party's purpose?
But he is very happy about this trick. Three cartoons can establish a good image for the unit he leads. Where can he find this good thing?
At the same time, Comrade Jiang Hai also felt the power of the three cartoons.
After slowly putting down the phone call from the dispatch department of the Post Office, he looked at the comics in front of him in shock.
"Lao San's idea... actually came true!"
At this moment, Cai Wensheng, who happened to be sitting in the editor-in-chief's office, asked curiously: "What happened?"
"What else could it be? Of course the post office agreed to pick up the newspaper in advance."
"real?"
"Starting from October 1, they will go to the printing factory to pick up newspapers according to the new time."
"It's incredible," Cai Wensheng lowered his head and looked at the comics on the table: "Our coordination so many times before is actually not as effective as these three comics?"
"I can't figure it out either," Jiang Hai smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The person who just called me was Section Chief Li from the dispatching department of the Post Office. What else do you think he said?"
"What?"
"They said they would post the subscription form for our Oriental Metropolis Daily in the most conspicuous place on the subscription column of the post office... and they said it was personally given by their director."
"..."
Cai Wensheng raised his hand and adjusted his glasses. He didn't know what to say. He only had an expression of disbelief.
…
On National Day in 1979, people across the country only had one day off.
Early in the morning, Jiang Shan called all three people living in the guest house.
Heat oil in a pan and roll each dough piece on top of the hot oil.
As the two bamboo chopsticks continued to move, each golden and crispy fried dough stick gradually revealed its original shape.
Amidst the bursts of heat, the waiter used the large slotted spoon in his hand to divide the wontons into large blue-rimmed bowls.
Yu Sigui, who was waiting aside, stared with his big eyes open.
The tangy fragrance actually made her a little impatient.
Jiang Shan, who was waiting aside, stared at the waiter's big colander, trying to figure out which bowl contained the most wontons.
Soon, Liu Xiaoqing and Chen Peisi, who were waiting at the table, watched bowls of wontons, fried dough sticks, and tea eggs being served to the table.
"Not bad Jiangshan," Liu Xiaoqing said with joy on his face, "the items you ordered are all my favorite food."
"You can eat these every day?" Yu Sigui looked at the other party with envy: "That's great!"
"Whatever is here, you can eat it if you want!"
"You can't eat it in Japan," Chen Peisi squinted her eyes and laughed: "Have a try!"
Jiang Shan also looked at Yu Sigui: "Try it quickly. If you like it, I will treat you to it in the future."
"That's what you said."
Yu Sigui imitated Jiangshan's way of eating fried dough sticks and wontons, and suddenly she couldn't bear to say anything.
"I've almost finished the advertising plan," Jiang Shan chatted while eating, "I'll show it to you after watching the movie."
"See a movie?"
Because of today’s movie, Chen Peisi hasn’t slept well since last night: “Shall we watch it together?”
"Of course," Jiang Shan raised his eyebrows: "This is your movie!"
Liu Xiaoqing and Chen Peisi looked at each other: "Actually, we were planning to go to the cinema today, so... we're really a little nervous."
Especially Chen Peisi, he was both looking forward to it and nervous.
I not only want to know what people think of "Look at This Family", but I am also afraid of hearing criticism from the masses.
"There is nothing to be nervous about," Jiang Shan reminded them, "Don't forget, there is a scene of mine in this!"
"Yes," Chen Peisi then remembered: "How could I have forgotten this, there is still a country in it!"
Yu Sigui quietly scooped up the last tea egg: "You also made a movie?"
"It should be called an advertisement," Jiang Shan said proudly, "an advertisement placed in a movie."
"There are already product placements in China," Yu Siguite looked at Jiangshan in surprise: "What kind of product is being implanted?"
"Happy Coke!"
Except for her, the other three people almost said the same thing.
When the three of them, who had eaten and drank enough, arrived at the Great Guangming Cinema, the entire Jiang family was already waiting at the door!
"The tickets are all bought!"
The eldest brother Jiang Hai rarely participated in a group activity at home, and he was the most excited at this time.
"Huh?" Jiang Shan looked at the large family in front of him and asked, "Why don't you see the second sister-in-law?"
"You don't understand," Jiang Ma beside her explained: "On the first day before the wedding, they are not allowed to see each other!"
"Is there any other way to say this?"
"Just bear with it," Jiang Hai smiled and patted Jiang He: "From now on, no one will care if you stick to it every day!"
"Second brother," Jiang Shan also laughed: "After today, if you still want to be alone, it won't be that easy!"
Jiang Ma glanced at the eldest and third child, clicked her tongue and shook her head.
These two bachelors are still trying to trouble the bridegroom's heart.
It’s really two hundred and fifty!
Today, Jiang He's smile rarely lasted for a long time.
After listening to his brother's words, he actually smiled brighter than the whole country!
October 1st is the premiere date of "Look at This Family"!
Compared with the grandeur of later generations, now even two actors have to hold tickets to enter.
"You see," Jiang Shan sat next to Chen Peisi: "The majority of people are still willing to buy tickets to see you!"
"Come on," Chen Peisi was sweating nervously at this moment: "It should be because of the National Day holiday. It is estimated that there will be no one by tomorrow!"
"Is the bet we made worth it?" Jiang Shan has not forgotten this: "To tell you the truth, I have a hunch that our movie will be more popular than Xiao Qing's "Little Flower"."
"Just dream," Chen Peisi herself didn't believe it: "In "Little Flower" there is not only Xiao Qing, but also Chen Chong and Tang Guoqiang."
"So what?"
Seeing that the lights in the cinema had dimmed, Jiang Shan still whispered: ""Look at This Family" not only has Xiaoqing, but also the two of us!"
"You two can pull me down." Liu Xiaoqing couldn't bear it any longer: "You might as well laugh to death!"
As the big screen lit up, Chen Peisi, who was extremely nervous, could no longer say anything.
Gradually, the laughter that rang out from time to time in the theater made him gradually relax.
When Chen Qiang on the big screen walked into Xinhua Bookstore with a straight face, Jiang Shan couldn't help but sit up straight.
"Ruhua, it will be my little brother's turn soon,"
Jiang Chuan remembered that her brother mentioned this scene to her, and she was even more excited than Jiang Shan at this moment: "Mom, please pay attention!"
"Comrade, please help me get a book of jokes."
The big screen king finally appeared.
He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and holding a bottle of Happy Coke in his hand.
"His dad," Jiang's mother was extremely excited: "Three of our family are actually in the movie!"
"I'm watching!"
Father Jiang, whose eyes were full of smiles, kept staring at his little son on the screen, reluctant to blink.
When Liu Xiaoqing on the screen rolled his eyes and threw a copy of "Family Planning Starts with You and Me", the audience laughed out loud again.
Obviously, the one who laughed the loudest was the whole family named Jiang!
On the way back after the movie, the family continued to discuss the funny scenes in the movie.
It wasn't until this moment that Chen Peisi's red heart finally fell to the ground!
…
October 2nd is an auspicious day.
It starts from early in the morning when the sky is dark, and continues until the evening when the sky is dark.
At this moment, Jiang Shan, whose legs began to tremble, hurriedly got into a state-owned restaurant.
The Jiang family set up ten banquet tables on the third floor of the century-old "Lao Zhengxing" restaurant in Pujiang.
In addition to Jiang’s father and Jiang’s mother’s colleagues and friends, the ones who occupy the most tables are the colleagues from the woman’s workplace.
At this moment, Jiang Ma, who was busy welcoming guests downstairs, was suddenly attracted by a notice posted in the restaurant.
"Our store will open from November 1st," Li Huaiying, who has been accompanying Jiang Ma, read the notice:
"Youtiao points will be adjusted from 4 cents to 8 cents, and Peony cigarettes will be adjusted from 4 cents to 9 cents..."
"Hey," Jiang's mother shook her head the more she listened: "How can I grant subsidies for non-staple food if you are so good? It turns out that the prices of these things are going to increase!"
"Jiangshan mother," Li Huaiying hurried to Jiang's mother: "Since we know that the price is going to increase, let's go to the streets tomorrow to buy more and take them home."
"That's right," Jiang Ma slapped her thigh: "My family has such a large population, it will definitely be cost-effective to buy more."
"What are you looking at there?"
Father Jiang, who was being dragged by the two old ladies, shouted at Mother Jiang.
Only then did Jiang Ma abandon the firewood, rice, oil and salt, and turned to greet the guests!
It was almost six o'clock, and almost all the guests attending the wedding banquet had arrived.
Jiang He and Lu Xiao, dressed happily, held hands and happily walked into the hall.
As the man's representative Jiang Hai and the woman's leader Hu Xiao's congratulatory message came to an end.
Jiang He and Lu Xiao's wedding banquet finally got underway.
In the lobby on the third floor of "Lao Zhengxing", waiters were coming and going, carrying plates of dishes between the wine tables.
Like the guests at the wedding banquet, they would poke their heads into the man's camp from time to time to take a look.
I really didn’t expect that Father Jiang and Mother Jiang, who usually look ordinary, could actually be related to actor Liu Xiaoqing.
"Director Hu,"
Tong Zirong, the voice actor of Zorro, looked in the direction of Jiang Shan from a distance: "Who is that person sitting next to Jiang Shan? Why does he look so familiar!"
When the colleagues in the translation factory heard what he said, they all followed his gaze and looked over.
It was just as Tong Zirong said, that round-headed gay man indeed looked very familiar!
"This country is really good..." Hu Xiao saw the clue at a glance, but swallowed the second half of the sentence:
He originally thought about bringing more colleagues over to support his second brother, but he didn't expect that they wouldn't need them at all.
"Did you figure out who he was?"
"Have you all seen today's movie "Look at This Family"?" Hu Xiao reminded: "Isn't he the leading actor in it?"
"Yeah?"
"Hey, it's true!"
While Liu Xiaoqing and Chen Peisi were whispering next to Jiangshan, Pan Hong, who had just gotten off the train, was hurriedly walking out of Pujiang Railway Station.
