"Panda brand color TVs, 14-inch, 19-inch, 21-inch everything. [] Yanwu brand dual-card audio recorder, feel the new life..."
The New Year's Day is getting closer and closer, and the department store's promotional vehicles begin to shuttle through the streets and alleys of Hongqi City. The loudspeakers on the vehicles keep playing advertisements to build momentum for the color TVs they have brought back, and to seduce the hearts of the citizens. It's hard enough to hold on to.
Most people were looking forward to the sale of color TVs in department stores. Especially when the 1983 version of Legend of the Condor Heroes was being broadcast all over the city, people who didn't have TVs had to go to neighbors' or relatives' homes to watch TV. It is the most normal thing for more than ten people to watch TV in large and small rooms.
Being able to own a color TV at home was the wish of most families in Hongqi City at that time.
Sitting in the office and listening to the sound of the promotional vehicles outside, Shen Tianlong was in a slightly complicated mood. Recently, Li Guodong had been treating him as a pawn, and Wang Chao was at odds with him. It could be said that both the chief and deputy captains of the criminal police team had objections to Shen Tianlong. .This greatly reduced Shen Tianlong's enthusiasm for continuing to support the criminal police team's tasks, but the battalion commander's words yesterday made Shen Tianlong rekindle his enthusiasm.
"You don't have to worry about anything else. As long as there are opportunities that are beneficial to your work, you should seize them. You are a proletarian now. When you get to a higher level, I will find a way for you. After all, there are some things that you can't ask for help easily. The more favors you use, the better. Thin and good steel must be used on the blade!"
The battalion commander's voice echoed in Shen Tianlong's ears again, and Li Yuanchao called him to the office again this morning, expressing his hope that he would follow the criminal police team out of the department store scene. Shen Tianlong thought about it, and finally obeyed. Li Yuanchao’s intention.
With a conclusion in mind, the sound of the promotional truck outside the window made Shen Tianlong feel a little excited again.
After publicizing day after day, when the emotions of the citizens of Hongqi City reached their peak, the department store finally released accurate news that the day to sell color TVs would be the day of the Lazy Man Collection.
In the folk tradition of Hongqi City, the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month every year is the custom of the Lazy Man Collection. The original meaning of the Lazy Man Collection was to satirize those lazy people who put off purchasing New Year's goods until the end of the year. But as time goes by With the passage of time, this day has gradually evolved into a festival for all citizens. At the end of the year, people who have been busy all year have taken a breath and like to go out to the market, go shopping, and take a look at the New Year's goods on this day. Those who are not prepared should hurry up and purchase, and those who are prepared should come to check for missing items and even join in the fun.
Accidents are likely to happen in crowded places, especially in places like Hongqi City with strong folk customs. In previous years, on this day when lazy people gathered, fights, drunken troubles, and theft cases were endless.
This time, the department store chose to sell color TVs on this day. Although it was a commercial gimmick, it really gave Li Guodong a headache from a security perspective.
A color TV costs one to two thousand yuan, which is an amount that citizens can save for several years through frugality. With so many people spending money to buy a color TV, how many thieves will be attracted to it?
The twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month
At seven o'clock in the morning, the conference room of the Hongqi City Public Security Bureau was already full. Li Guodong sat upright with a solemn expression.
"Brothers, the Chinese New Year is tomorrow. Today's department store incident is our last important task this year. Brothers have worked hard for a year, and our achievements this year are obvious to all. Leaders at all levels are also very concerned about us. , whether it is spiritual or material, all the rewards that should be given have been given. For the strength, everyone has contributed; for the merit, I will go and ask for it from the brothers. As long as I am here, Li Guodong, I will never let the brothers be wronged. .This is the last shift of the year, brothers, can you stand still?"
At the last sentence, Li Guodong suddenly raised his voice.
"able!"
Everyone in the criminal police team responded loudly, with great momentum!
The Criminal Police Team’s bonuses have always been the highest in the Public Security Bureau; the Criminal Police Team’s benefits have also been the best in the Public Security Bureau. This is one of the reasons why Li Guodong is supported by everyone. Li Guodong has always taken the lead in fighting for the interests of the Criminal Police Team. Charge on the front line, even at the expense of other departments and leaders.
At this moment, the mood of everyone in the criminal police team, mobilized by Li Guodong, turned out to be indescribably heroic and heroic.
As a non-staff member of the criminal police team, Shen Tianlong's emotions were infected unconsciously.
In the eyes of everyone, Li Guodong is both a majestic leader and a protective father!
"The fourth and fifth groups stay at home and are responsible for the daily work of the criminal police team, and at the same time make preparations for support. Wang Chao is in charge."
"Group 123 wears police uniforms, carries batons, and the team leader carries a gun. They are responsible for on-site security in the department store. I am responsible for unified command on site."
"Shen Tianlong was temporarily assigned to Team 1 of the Criminal Police Team and followed orders from team leader Fu Yongshan."
"Next, I will clarify the work tasks of each group..."
Li Guodong was arranging work tasks in an orderly manner, but Li Yuanchao suddenly knocked on the door and appeared at the door of the conference room.
"Team Li, there is a call from the municipal party committee. There is a meeting and we are asked to go there immediately," Li Yuanchao said.
Looking up at Li Yuanchao, Li Guodong showed some dissatisfaction. He pondered for a moment and said: "Wang Chao, you will chair the meeting. If I come back late, you will bring people out of the scene. I will contact you after the meeting."
After instructing Wang Chao and explaining some precautions, Li Guodong stood up and walked out.
The Public Security Bureau starts work at 8 a.m., department stores start selling color TVs at 9 a.m., and Li Guodong holds a meeting at 7 a.m. to make arrangements. It can be said that Li Guodong attaches great importance to this matter.
He attaches great importance to selling color TVs, but there are people who take it more seriously than him.
Who are they? Yang Liulang and Yang Qilang, the young men chasing the wind.
Yang Liulang and Yang Qilang were young and impulsive. They often went to other people's houses to watch movies such as The Legend of the Condor Heroes and Fearless Fearless. They had already had enough of this kind of life.
"Dad, let's buy a color TV for our family during the Chinese New Year!" Yang Liulang and Yang Qilang asked for help.
"Why did you buy that thing? It hurts your eyes. It will make you blind if you look at it for a long time. You can just listen to the radio."
Older people are always slower to accept new things.
"Dad, just buy one," Yang Liulang and Yang Qilang continued to beg.
"If you are willing to buy it yourself, make money to buy it. I have to keep the money for you to find a wife!" The old man rolled his eyes at the two sons and ignored them.
Lao Huizi's rejection did not discourage the two brothers. Their strong desire for color TV inspired the two brothers' infinite wisdom, and soon they found a way to make money.
They decided to open an ice rink! Yes, a high-end and elegant ice rink!
The winter in Hongqi City is extremely cold, with the lowest temperature approaching minus 30°C, which provides natural conditions for the two brothers to start their own business.
At that time, the Mining District Middle School in Hongqi City was on vacation. The two boys took shovels and built a circle with a diameter of about 200 meters on the school playground. Then they connected a rubber pipe to the faucet and started filling the circle with water.
The next day after filling the water, the circle became a natural ice rink.【】
