As we all know, since July 26, 1968, more than 30,000 workers from more than 60 factories in the capital formed the "Capital Workers Red Ideological Propaganda Team" and stationed themselves in various colleges and universities in the capital.
With the support of the school, he quickly took over the overall leadership of the school in Beijing. At that time, he was extremely powerful and a smash hit.
However, after the Red Guard organization quickly declined, and the factional conflicts were successfully resolved, ending the chaos in society, although the "work propaganda team" still participated in the struggle, criticism, and reform tasks in the school, and even claimed to lead the school forever
, but because the education level of these transferred key workers is really limited, and they are not familiar with education work and the business work of the units where they are stationed, they cannot fully grasp the situation from beginning to end and assume this arduous responsibility.
Therefore, since the 1970s, due to various mistakes, errors, and even internal disputes, labor propaganda teams in various places began to gradually lose the authority and credibility established in the previous years. In the end, the "work propaganda teams" were
The power that can be controlled is getting smaller and smaller, and fewer and fewer people remain in the unit where they are stationed.
It should be said that with Hu Erkui's innate ability to seek good fortune and avoid evil, and to be good at maneuvering, it was not difficult for him to detect the signs of dwindling power in his hands. However, because he came to avoid Chen Deyuan's "split fingers", even if he felt some urgency,
With a sense of crisis, when Chen Deyuan was still in charge of the coal plant, he did not dare to easily transfer back to the original plant.
Fortunately, Chen Deyuan passed away due to a work-related injury in 1972, so Hu Erkui naturally started to jump up and down again to work for his own future like a hairy monkey that had broken free of its chains.
To say that this kid is really good at this aspect, relying on the "extra money" he made privately in the past few years and his proficient "whisking" skills, he not only successfully transferred back to the Nanheng Street Coal Factory in a short time
, and even regained the favor of the "military representative", and was promoted one level higher, and actually became the deputy chief of the security department.
So now that he had the support of the top leader, a little power in his hands, coupled with the connections in the past and the ability to scheme with people in evil ways, he was able to successfully work in the coal factory.
", not only did he get along like a duck to water in various offices, he also fooled many young workers in the factory to attach themselves to him for a little profit, and he quickly formed a group of interests around him with him as the main one and with considerable energy.
alliance.
It is human nature to be greedy and insufficient. At this point, he naturally developed more ambitions and began to set his sights on the position of Zhao Fengnian, director of the production department.
In fact, it stands to reason that Zhao Fengnian has a high prestige among workers, and the military representatives also have considerable trust and reliance on him. There is not much hope of replacing Hu Erkui, who only knows how to flatter others and is lazy in cooking.
.
But don't look at Hu Erkui's lack of real ability. It doesn't matter, he can be bad. This kid actually knows how to save the country by attacking in the east and in the west.
He found the right opportunity and used his superiors to convey the new instructions of "developing liquefied petroleum gas" and asked the subordinate coal plants to add a supervisor responsible for this work. During a feast of wine and wine, he actually took the initiative to
Helped Zhao Fengnian become a lobbyist.
And in the end, he really got through the work of the factory leaders headed by the "military representative" and promoted Zhao Fengnian to the position of deputy director in charge of the liquefaction station and machinery production.
Naturally, when Zhao Fengnian changed his position, the position of director of the production department became his own, Hu Erkui's.
But to be honest, Hu Erkui actually wanted to be the director, not because he had any preference for the job of grasping production tasks. The key is that the director of the production department has a large business and has a certain degree of autonomy to negotiate raw material procurement with the Mentougou coal mine in western Beijing.
related matters, so this means that once he takes this position, he will have more opportunities to benefit personally.
Although there are many benefits, the hardships and setbacks are also obvious, because the production department ranks first among all departments in terms of work difficulties and difficulties, and has heavy responsibilities. Especially in winter, there are simply too many things to worry about.
Regarding this point, Hu Erkui also had his own little calculation. In order to find someone to "take the blame" for him, this kid used his crooked brain again and very "kindly" brought in Yan Fuhai, who was familiar with this aspect of the business.
deputy.
On the surface, it was his recognition and support for Yan Fuhai, but in fact, it was just him finding a "long-term worker" who would take responsibility for him and work for him.
But precisely in this way, he made another clever move by mistake, because not only did Zhao Fengnian not be able to say anything for Yan Fuhai's sake, but he also lost two favors in vain.
, a good reputation is really smooth and flawless.
And from then on, he didn't have to worry about his work, and he got all the benefits without any fuss. Those days were simply beautiful. At the same time, he entered a virtuous circle, and he could use these "benefits" he took privately to be more comfortable with the "military"
"representative" and maintain "friendly" relationships with other department leaders.
So gradually, he, the production director, became very comfortable in his job, and for a while he became a celebrity in the coal factory that completely overshadowed Zhao Fengnian. Under a very abnormal kind of praise, he gradually became more and more famous.
The atmosphere of the entire production department and even the entire coal plant was ruined.
Honest and down-to-earth people suffered under his hands, while those workers who flattered him and loved to please him became the confidants he deliberately cared for.
So one can imagine how Chen Liquan, who took his father's place and returned to work in the coal factory after being expelled from prison, would be treated under such circumstances.
Of course, at the beginning, Chen Liquan's special resume and super physical fitness still had some deterrent effect on Hu Erkui.
But as time went by, Hu Erkui discovered that Chen Liquan didn't want to cause trouble and could only obey orders mechanically. Therefore, when the myth of "Chen Da Bangchui" and the coexisting deterrent gradually faded away in the factory,
Not only did Hu Erkui begin to "take care" of Chen Liquan wantonly, but some of his workers also began to openly ridicule, disdain and even bully him.
In other words, the "military representatives" still had some affection for Chen Liquan, and Zhao Fengnian and Yan Fuhai paid special attention to him. Hu Erkui was embarrassed to do too much in public.
However, if he can find a reasonable excuse, he will not be merciful and make Chen Liquan's life too comfortable.
Coincidentally, Yan Fu was on a business trip overseas on this day, and just when workers like Chen Liquan and others had almost rubbed the coal into dust and it was less than ten minutes before getting off work, Director Hu Erkui and Director Hu
I also rode a brand-new "Forever 26" back to the factory, and pedaled straight to the production department area.
As a result, the old boy spotted Hong Yanwu who was waiting for someone halfway, and immediately braked suddenly and stopped the car.
Maybe it's because the coal plant is covered by a big roof and the light is dim all year round, or maybe it's because the time is far apart. Hong Yanwu's appearance has changed greatly from his childhood appearance as he grows older. Hu Erkui just thinks he looks familiar, but he can't be completely sure.
Who is Hong Yanwu?
That's why this old boy supported the car with one leg, walked up and down, stared at Hong Yanwu carefully for a long time, and deliberately questioned him about his identity and purpose of coming.
But to be honest, for the same reason, the childhood impressions of Hu Erkui and Hong Yanwu were also inconsistent.
I used to be a skinny "Hugabaer", but now I not only have more wrinkles, a beer belly, I have gained more weight, and even my clothes are completely different. I am dressed in blue from top to bottom, clean and tidy.
Wearing the Huadani folk costume on his body, he looked like an ordinary state cadre, somewhat human-like.
Therefore, Hong Yanwu failed to recognize him for a while, but actually announced his name and said that he was waiting for Chen Liquan.
The result can be imagined, this time it hit the muzzle of the gun. Hu Erkui immediately sneered after hearing this, and immediately grinned widely. The jagged teeth in his mouth were revealed in a proud manner, and then he
He raised his arms and shouted loudly.
After a while, this guy not only called over Chen Liquan himself and the foreman in charge of supervision, but also attracted a large group of busy workers who came to watch the excitement.
While Hong Yanwu and Li Quan were both stunned and confused, Hu Erkui had a straight face and tapped their noses one by one with his hand. Then he pretended to turn around and started talking to the foreman in an official tone.
"I said, you need to strengthen management, you see? You can never let people like this in again. If this is still the case, then it's okay."
"Director Hu? You mean..." The foreman was a little confused.
"You don't know yet? Hey, this is also a very rare case. Let me tell you, this guy, like Chen Liquan, is also a famous...that, reform-through-labor prisoner!"
"Oh, oops, I really don't know. Look at what happened. If I had known, I wouldn't have let him wait here..."
"Isn't it a crime for those who don't know? I'm going to tell you today. Next time you see him again, you will directly notify the security department to drive him out and not allow him to step into our coal plant. This kid has not been a good bird since he was a child.
It turned out that with the help of Chen Deyuan's evil forces, he smashed the windows of our house..."
Hu Erkui and the foreman sang along, ostensibly out of duty and for the safety of the factory, but in fact they did their best to humiliate Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan.
This naturally caused some workers to blindly follow or sneer maliciously, and it also made Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan very angry.
In particular, Hu Erkui's last sentence also mentioned Chen Liquan's deceased father, with the intention of discrediting his character both inside and outside the words. This was Chen Liquan's disobedience, which made him immediately clench his fists and protest.
"You...shut up! What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Hmph! What's the matter, do you still want to hit me? It seems that you are even more awesome because of the fact that you have been in jail before!"
When Hu Erkui saw that Chen Liquan had been angered, instead of being afraid, he became more interested.
"I'm telling you today that I know the most about you two. The files on Guard Corey are clearly written. The facts of your crimes are very bad. Do you know that? Without the connivance of your family, you would have
Can we get this far?"
"Stare? I'll say the same thing if you stare again! Do you dare to expose everything about your father? Do you dare?"
After saying that, Hu Erkui took another step forward and gave Chen Liquan and Hong Yanwu ultimatums with a sinister smile, trying to squeeze them out as much as possible.
"You, Chen Liquan, now you must first reform yourself and work honestly. In view of your bad attitude. I am informing you now that you will be transferred to the briquette workshop to work overtime in the evening. You must make 500 pieces of briquettes today.
go home."
"And you, Hong Yanwu, are not from our factory at all. I'm afraid something will be lost in the factory, so get out of here now, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you!"
Chen Liquan was so angry that he couldn't bear it anymore.
