Qin Huairou looked at her cousin, with a flash of complicated emotions in her eyes.
Qin Jingrou is obviously thinner than a few months ago, and her chin looks sharper.
The original baby fat is gone, and she looks more mature and capable, but she can't hide her melancholy.
However, this touch of melancholy only made her gain points.
The original Qin Jingrou was just a silly country girl, beautiful but without any connotation, just like a blank book.
Now, this melancholy has added story content to the book.
Qin Huairou knew that her cousin's heart was tied to Du Fei, but what could she do~
Du Fei has obviously calmed down in the past two years, probably because he has more than one child. Although he is not very old, his mentality has changed.
Qin Huairou sometimes complained secretly, but Du Fei was cruel. When such a beauty came to her door and offered her a pillow, he refused.
It just so happens that this younger sister loves to get into trouble, so the two stubborn people met together.
Qin Huairou said "Yeah": "He's pretty good."
Qin Jingrou lowered her head, smelling the lingering smell in the air, and felt mixed emotions in her heart.
Now, she doesn't feel sorry for herself as much as she did at first, let alone shed tears. Anyway, she is used to it.
But she just wasn't willing to give in. To say how much she loved Du Fei, she definitely loved him, but it didn't matter how deeply she loved Du Fei.
When she is with Du Fei, if there is five points of love, the remaining five points are unwillingness.
This man should have been hers, at least he should have her share, but now...
Qin Jingrou sat on the edge of the kang and said nothing, feeling confused.
Qin Huairou sat up from the kang, put on her shirt, put on her cotton-padded jacket, wrapped the quilt around her lower body, and asked, "Have you eaten yet? There is pickled cabbage and white meat in the kitchen. I served it for you in advance."
Qin Jingrou shook her head: "I'm not hungry."
Qin Huairou didn't try to persuade her. At this point, she had nothing to say and simply resigned herself to fate.
…
More than a month passed in the blink of an eye, and it was the end of the year.
Du Fei spent this period of time cultivating himself. In addition to his normal work, he also read books during working hours, which brought him back to the feeling of fishing in the street office.
But even so, some of the following work is still progressing in an orderly manner.
First of all, there is good news from Shanghai Aircraft Factory. The prototype of a four-engine large transport aircraft with a load capacity of 60 tons has been completed ahead of schedule. It is planned to be ready for test flight during the Spring Festival. Now the test flight has arrived in advance for the New Year, and Du Fei has been invited to observe it in person.
Du Fei thought for a while, but still didn't go. When it got cold, he was really too lazy to move.
This year has been a bit too busy with all the comings and goings. It’s the end of the year and I really want to take a break.
Besides, there was nothing interesting about a test flight. For Du Fei, it was all a matter of course.
The original design drawings have been upgraded and optimized, and there must be no problems.
The engine is also ready-made and has been used in several models, so it has long been quite mature.
As long as there are no problems with the craftsmanship at the Shanghai Aircraft Factory, there will definitely be no problem with the prototype aircraft's test flight.
Besides, there are some things in the capital that Du Fei needs to keep an eye on.
Du Fei seemed to have nothing wrong with him, but there were some things that just couldn't be done without him.
As several factories under the fire equipment company continued to expand in size, they began to lack people one after another.
Not only is there a shortage of workers, but more importantly, there is a shortage of qualified engineers and high-end design talents. From the 8270 factory to the aircraft manufacturing factory, to the tractor factory and the automobile manufacturing factory, everyone is complaining to Du Fei for talent.
No matter what, it's not enough.
If it were a few decades later, when college students could not find jobs, there would be no need to consider this issue at all.
At worst, you can offer high wages and benefits, so you don't have to worry about not being able to recruit talents.
But it's only 1973, so it's not a question of treatment at all, it's that there really are no people.
Regarding this issue, Du Fei is also a little confused. A clever woman can't make a meal without rice, and he can't conjure talents out of thin air~
However, this problem must not be left behind, and a solution must be found.
Du Fei didn't have any clue after much deliberation, so he simply called Zhang Wenzhong over.
Calling Zhang Wenzhong here does not mean that Zhang Wenzhong is very intelligent, but that he has been working in government agencies in the capital all his life. Zhang Wenzhong knows some things very well.
"Old Zhang, think about it, what can you do?" Du Fei poured Zhang Wenzhong a cup of tea.
Zhang Wenzhong quickly stretched out his hand to hold the tea cup, and raised his buttocks slightly from the sofa, but showed a troubled expression: "This... leader, what are you talking about..." He smiled helplessly: "You can't even solve it, you make me want to fold.
……this……"
Du Fei and Zhang Wenzhong have known each other well over the years, and said with a smile: "Just say whatever comes to mind. We are also two cobblers who stand up to Zhuge Liang~"
Zhang Wenzhong said quickly: "You are Zhuge Liang, and I am the cobbler." He then added: "Actually, this matter was not a big deal in the first place. The main reason is... well, you know that the college entrance examination was stopped a few years ago.
, now every school is filled with workers, peasants and soldiers students, this cultural foundation..."
Du Fei understood what he meant. After all, Qin Jingrou went to college. If there were to be an exam, it would be impossible for Qin Jingrou to pass the exam based on her foundation.
To be honest, these worker, peasant, and soldier students are not stupid. On the contrary, these people are quite smart. Most of them truly stand out from the grassroots, even from remote areas.
Their problem is that their foundation is too poor, coupled with the current academic system. After entering university, there are only two years of courses, and the third year is practice. There is no time to make up for the basics. It is more about rushing ducks to the shelves and not washing the carrots when they are too fast.
mud.
Zhang Wenzhong said: "Actually, we recruited a group of people a while ago, but the foundation is really poor."
Du Fei nodded. He was well aware of this situation, otherwise he would not have mentioned direct recruitment.
Du Fei thought for a moment and said, "How big is the current talent gap?"
Zhang Wenzhong is the manager of a fire protection equipment company, and he comes up with these things: "Several factories come together, and they need at least 5,000 people every year."
Du Fei frowned. The next few years will be critical. If a fire equipment company wants to further expand and occupy a favorable position in future competition, talent is the key. How can it be done without anyone!
If we forcefully recruit some people now, but their basic skills are not strong enough and we can only train them slowly, the efficiency is really low.
Moreover, basic skills and learning ability determine the upper limit of a person. Without excellent basic knowledge, the best he can do is become a qualified technician, and it is difficult to cultivate scientific research capabilities.
Unless you are a genius and can break the rules.
Having said that, if geniuses can receive more systematic education, the upper limit of what they can achieve will definitely be higher.
Du Fei couldn't help but sigh, and after thinking about it, he felt that he had to find a way.
It's time to resume the exam, but this matter is quite sensitive. He definitely can't be the first to stand out. That's quite unwise and not his style.
Especially recently, I have read a lot of books in my spare time, gained a lot of insights, and become more open-minded.
No matter what you want to accomplish, you must have the right entry point. If the name is not correct, the words are not smooth, and there is no legitimate reason to do the right thing, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
Du Fei thought quickly in his mind and finally had time to say: "Lao Zhang, if you look like this, we are short of people. Let's ask the various factories below to report the vacancies. They will write out their own papers for the vacancies. Let's ask college students from various schools in the capital.
Come and give it a try, and as long as you have outstanding performance, we will directly recruit them, and you will receive a one-level salary increase compared to ordinary graduates."
Zhang Wenzhong was stunned and didn't understand what Du Fei meant. Didn't he just say it before? These people are not good at it, why is this...
Du Fei added at the end: "Tell the people below that the questions should not be too simple, do you understand~"
Zhang Wenzhong is very transparent. He has spent his whole life working in government agencies and instantly understood what Du Fei meant.
On the surface, I am looking for someone, but in fact I am not looking for someone. Is this to make buttons?
But no matter what Du Fei wanted to do, Zhang Wenzhong just cooperated and said immediately: "Don't worry, leader, I'll do it right away."
…
A few days later, it was almost the end of the year, and Dad Zhu was even busier at work.
Last year can be said to be quite successful. Although there are still more than ten days left, the economic data has mostly come out.
It is expected that the domestic industrial added value will be more than 15%. If calculated based on GDP, it will increase by about 9% and reach 180 billion US dollars. It is only more than 10 billion US dollars away from the previous Yingguo. If this rate can still be maintained in 1974,
There is great hope to surpass Yingguo and become sixth in the world.
And this is because of the ultra-low domestic prices and the sealed real estate environment, which is a real data without any moisture.
In addition, domestic funds are currently quite abundant, allowing for continuous and uninterrupted industrial investment. There will be no unsustainable situation like before Du Fei crossed over. If nothing else happens, the economic growth rate will not be the same in the next few years.
will drop below 7%.
It will surpass Yingguo next year, and it will surpass Faguo in three to five years at most, ranking among the top five in the world after the United States, the Soviet Union, East China, and Independence.
It was rare for Dad Zhu to go home for dinner today, but he asked about the fire equipment company at the table: "Xiao Fei, I heard that there is a recruitment examination there?"
Du Fei smiled and said: "You all know this? There is such a thing. You also know that our company has reached a bottleneck and is in urgent need of various types of talents. So don't you want to recruit a group of people from various colleges and universities in the capital.
"
Dad Zhu frowned: "I heard that you deliberately made things difficult for others. Thousands of people took the exam, but in the end less than ten were chosen."
At the dinner table, Zhu Ma and Zhu Ting also looked at Du Fei. The ratio was less than one thousandth, which was indeed a bit abnormal.
Du Fei said disapprovingly: "Dad, you only know one thing but not the other. I guess someone has come to complain to you~"
Dad Zhu took a mouthful of vegetables and nodded.
Du Fei curled his lips: "Those who complained should not have the shame to tell you why we only wanted those few people~"
Zhu Ma and Zhu Ting were both interested. Zhu Ting said: "Why on earth? Don't show off."
Du Fei chuckled and said, "Hey, Lafayette has an edict that I will obey."
Zhu Ting rolled her eyes at him: "It's not right, tell me quickly."
Zhu's father tilted his head, a little tired of Du Fei flirting with his daughter, but Zhu's mother smiled.
At least from the looks of it, the relationship between daughter and son-in-law is quite good.
Although Zhu's mother didn't say anything before, she was worried about the relationship between Du Fei and Zhu Ting.
First, with the powerful ability Du Fei has shown, even if he does not rely on his family, no matter which faction he joins, he will be treated as an honored guest.
The second one is the matter between Du Fei and Zhu Li. Although Zhu's parents knew early on that Du Fei had another woman outside, they didn't pay much attention to it.
Qin Huairou or Wang Yufen, no matter how beautiful and charming Guanzhang is, in the final analysis, they are both widows and not worthy of Du Fei at all.
But Zhu Li's situation is a little different. As the old saying goes, rabbits don't eat grass beside their nests. Du Fei and Zhu Li got together, which really angered Zhu's mother.
If Du Fei and Zhu Ting were a normal couple and got married, her mother-in-law would have exploded a long time ago.
The problem is that when Zhu Ting and Du Fei got together, they were not an ordinary couple from the beginning.
Zhu Ting is a hard-working husband and cannot marry anyone else.
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, the Zhu family, including Zhu Ting, firmly believed in Chen Fangshi's argument. Now it was Du Fei's turn.
Even so, Zhu's mother was worried that Du Fei would continue to indulge and get other women.
Fortunately, after Zhu Li, Du Fei actually restrained himself.
Regardless of whether it was Shen Jianing who was placed beside him by Director Jiang, or Qin Jingrou, who was a little unclear at first, Du Fei kept his distance.
This actually made Zhu Ma feel a little relieved.
It's not that I'm happy that Du Fei only has four women, but that Du Fei is able to control his desires instead of letting his horse run wild and being controlled by his desires.
Du Fei continued to smile and said: "Actually, before this, our aircraft manufacturing factory recruited a group of people, but their ability..." Du Fei chuckled lightly, and his meaning was expressed without any need to say it.
Dad Zhu frowned: "Since you are not satisfied, I have to think of another way. Why do you need to do this? Everyone has complained to me."
As he spoke, he looked at Du Fei meaningfully: "You kid, don't pretend to be confused because you understand. What do you want to do? I called thousands of people to take the exam, and only a few are needed in the end. You are tearing off the face of this school and throwing it away."
Step on the ground, if you have no other ideas, you won't do such a thing."
Du Fei said hey: "Dad, if you don't say that my grandson can't jump out of your Wuzhi Mountain! You can see clearly what I have in mind at a glance."
Dad Zhu gave a slight "scoff", knowing that he was flattering, but he felt comfortable in his heart, and couldn't help but smile: "You are such a generous person."
Du Fei said: "It's not that I'm looking for trouble, it's really... the level of our current graduates, how can I say... It's really hard to describe. You said, they are about to graduate, and some people can't even do basic calculus.
I understand, what do you want me to do? I can’t just recruit them all. What if there is an accident?”
Dad Zhu frowned, keenly catching the implication of Du Fei's words, and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to do, tell me directly, don't talk around in circles with me."
Du Fei said: "Dad, look, it's been several years. Is it time to consider resuming the exam? It's really..." Du Fei chewed his teeth and said, "It's really not feasible. We should do this in extraordinary times."
I'm afraid, if it goes on for a long time... I'm afraid it will affect our foundation."
Dad Zhu put down his chopsticks, frowned, and glared at Du Fei: "You can really give me problems~"
Du Fei hehe.
Dad Zhu said again: "This is no small matter, you dare to touch it!"
Du Fei said with a bitter face: "Dad, it's not a question of whether I dare or not. I really have no choice. Everyone below is asking for people, workers, engineers, designers, scientists, what do you want me to do? Now we have just met a little bit
The momentum of improvement cannot be interrupted just because there is no one."
Dad Zhu nodded, agreeing with this statement.
Du Fei added: "If there is nothing we can do, we have a technical school below. If that doesn't work, we can go to various places to organize high school exams in previous years. If we pass the exam, we can go to the technical school for two years. It will be better than what we have now. At least we have a solid foundation. In the future,
The development potential is also greater.”
Dad Zhu immediately raised his eyebrows, slapped the table and said, "You are talking nonsense! Who do you think you are? You go to the local exam by yourself, you are going to make a big difference!"
Du Fei shrank his neck and quickly said with a smile: "Dad, don't worry, I am also in a hurry and seek medical treatment. If you can't say it, then we won't do it. Don't be angry and scold me. It's okay."
Don’t let your anger break your body.”
Dad Zhu glared, there was nothing he could do with this hob meat.
The most important thing is to love talents, but across the country, whoever can go out and bring back more than a billion US dollars is the most important thing.
Besides, Dad Zhu was not really angry. The reason why he was like this was to emphasize that this matter was unusual and should not be taken lightly.
Dad Zhu pondered for a moment, thought for a while and said: "The situations you mentioned are not unreasonable. The economy has improved significantly in the past two years, and the demand for college students from all walks of life is increasing. There are some things that should be considered. But... this
Things must be considered from a long-term perspective.”
Du Fei nodded quickly.
Dad Zhu added: "The alternative approach you mentioned just now, independent enrollment, is also a way, but it can't be done by your family. It would be too ostentatious."
Du Fei blinked his eyes and said, "You mean... to get a few more schools to do it together?"
Dad Zhu nodded: "Don't go into literature and history, look for science and engineering schools in applied technology, preferably a school with some background, plus a few technical schools from large enterprises similar to yours, you can do it together.
"
Du Fei understood what Zhu's father meant as soon as he heard it. This was not just about recruiting students, but about taking this opportunity to open up an opportunity.
It should be said that ginger is still hotter, and Dad Zhu’s trick is quite clever.
Dad Zhu added: "This matter cannot be rushed, let alone charge forward. In fact, there are many people who really want to resume the exam. Let the news out, and someone will speak for us..."
Du Fei nodded. In fact, the employer that is most anxious about this matter right now is not the employer like Du Fei, but the education department.
Stopping the exam is equivalent to cutting off their roots. As long as there is a slight gap, they will spare no effort.
However, Du Fei had his own ideas, and this alone was not enough, so he added, "Dad, actually I have another idea."
Dad Zhu glanced at him and said "said" concisely and concisely.
Du Fei said: "In the final analysis, other people's children are not as good as our own to support. I wonder if I can upgrade the original technical school in Factory 8270 and turn it into a university. I just take advantage of the current opportunity to study in other places."
The school recruits people, strengthens its teaching staff, and trains specialized talents for my factory in a more targeted manner."
Dad Zhu thought for a while and said: "This matter can be done, but again, don't make a big deal about it."
There is nothing wrong with Du Fei's idea. Today's large enterprises have their own technical schools, but the teaching capabilities are uneven.
Especially those related to the railway, electric power, and petroleum industries have corresponding colleges and universities.
…
After getting angry with Dad Zhu, Du Fei also washed the child without waiting for the hair to dry, and went to the technical school of Factory 8270 the next day.
Factory Manager Yang was caught off guard when he realized that Du Fei's car had already arrived downstairs.
He quickly ran downstairs.
Du Fei saw him and said with a smile: "Old Yang, what are you in a hurry for? You're wheezing. Think about it later and install an elevator for the office building."
Director Yang nodded quickly and exchanged a few words before asking Du Fei's purpose of coming.
Du Fei said: "If you have nothing else to do, come and see our technical school."
Director Yang was stunned, he really didn't expect this to happen.
Du Fei had never asked about the technical school before, but today he did it on a whim.
But seeing that Du Fei had no intention of explaining, Factory Manager Yang knew the principle of 'Ask what you should ask and don't ask what you shouldn't', so he immediately asked someone to make arrangements.
Soon the deputy director in charge of logistics and the director of the general affairs department were called over.
Furthermore, the elder also came.
The first uncle is the deputy factory director in charge of technology, and he also has certain jurisdiction over the technical school. He regularly transfers engineers with excellent skills and theoretical level from the factory to give lectures at the technical school.
Furthermore, due to the special relationship between the first uncle and Du Fei, Director Yang would definitely call him on this occasion.
A group of six or seven people went straight to the technical school in a car.
Although it is a school directly affiliated with the factory, the technical school is not in the factory, but in the family courtyard.
First of all, it is for safety reasons. After all, there are a lot of dangerous goods in the factory, which may be dangerous for those who are not young enough to come into contact with them.
Secondly, most of the people who come to technical schools are children from factories, which is also the norm in most factory-affiliated technical schools.
It is natural for a son to inherit his father's legacy.
The technical school of Factory 8270 was originally located here, but later Xiao Guicao followed suit.
In about five or six minutes, the car arrived at the school gate.
The large iron door painted with green paint opened to the left and right. There were some messy students standing inside, about thirty people, holding plastic flowers in their hands. When they saw Du Fei and his group getting out of the car, they immediately shook them.
The fake flower shouted "Welcome, welcome, warm welcome" over and over again.
Du Fei looked at this scene and looked back at Factory Director Wang, who was in charge of logistics: "Old Wang, we are just here to take a look. It would be wrong to disturb the students in class."
Factory Director Wang was stunned and saw that Du Fei was not angry, but he didn't like this form either. He quickly went over and dismissed everyone, bringing only one middle-aged man with him, who was the principal here.
The principal is tall, with a long back and a muscular body. He does not look like a cultural person, but his face is simple. He followed Factory Director Wang and trembled his hands nervously.
Du Fei didn't mean to embarrass him. After the introduction, he stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Principal Zhao."
Principal Zhao hurriedly stretched out his hands to hold them: "Welcome the leaders to come and inspect."
The crowd had just dispersed, and the students returning to their respective classes happened to see it.
Those who could be called here were not ordinary people, including Xiaojun and Xiaodang.
Following everyone back to the classroom, Xiaodang whispered: "I seemed to have seen Uncle Du just now."
Xiaojun nodded and winked, but remained silent.
Xiao Dang was not stupid and knew that there were many people with mixed views. It was not until they returned to their respective classes that the two of them got a chance to talk alone outside the classroom door.
Xiaodang whispered: "Brother Jun, was that really Uncle Du just now?"
Although she knew that Du Fei was very capable, she didn't know exactly what he did or what unit he was in.
Xiaojun heard it from his uncle and aunt at home, but he didn't understand it at all.
