EBE Chapter 340: It doesn’t matter if the plan is high-level, as long as it is useful
Chapter 340: It doesn’t matter if the plan is high-level, as long as it is useful
Under the guidance of Dong Huiru, Zhou Jiaxing is already in the third year of junior high school.
However, the school now often organizes students to participate in production labor, and there is less time for classes. He gradually lost interest in school and also disliked the hard work of farm work.
When he learned that the village was about to get two trucks, he went to discuss with his father and said he wanted to learn how to drive.
Zhou Chuanyi glanced at Zhou Jiaxing and said coldly, "Studying is like working, you can't fish for three days and dry the net for two days.
You are already in the third year of junior high school. If you persist a little longer, you can go to high school, then to college. After graduating from college, you can go to the city to become a cadre. How can you be worthy of Teacher Dong's teachings if you give up halfway now?"
Zhou Jiaxing: "Dad, we have three days of classes at school now, and two days are spent working in the fields. During the busy farming season, we have to stay in the fields for a week or two. How is that different from the farmers?
Not all university graduates can become cadres. Many of them go to work in factories as workers.
I read the newspapers you bring home every time. In order to ease supply pressure, the government has been reducing the urban population. Aren’t there many people from our production team who moved to the city a few years ago who have been sent back to their hometowns?
It’s hard to say what the future situation will be like. When I graduate from university, if the policy is not good, I may be sent to the countryside to farm.
After going around in circles, if I were to go back home and farm, why would I waste so much time studying?
Instead, I lose hope with you.
If I learn to drive, things will be different. At least I will have a skill and can support myself wherever I go. I won’t have to rely on you and I can find a job in advance.”
Zhou Chuanyi thought thoughtfully: "Do you really want to learn how to drive? What if you can't learn it?"
Zhou Jiaxing: "If you can't learn it, come back and continue studying! I will listen to you, go to high school, take the college entrance examination, and follow the organization's arrangements."
Zhou Chuanyi: "...Okay, I'll get you a spot."
You need to inform Zhou Chuanjing to reserve a spot.
It's the same for everyone who goes to learn how to drive, and it can also be a favor to Zhou Chuanyi, so Zhou Chuanjing agreed without saying a word.
It doesn't matter how high the design is, as long as it is useful.
After discussing it, Zhou Chuanyi and Zhou Chuanjing, the old partners, decided to use the method of hiding the lottery slips to get the quota...
As a driver, even if he does not drive, he will still get full work points every day. Many people do not care about this, mainly because they feel proud!
The young people in the village all signed up actively when they thought about driving a truck around and attracting envious looks.
Zhou Chuanjing directly eliminated those lazy people.
Some people were not convinced and said that he had graduated from elementary school, so why couldn't he participate in the drawing of lots?
Zhou Chuanjing: "Learning to drive is not much easier than working in the fields. You guys are rarely seen at work on weekdays, or you choose to do easy work. Why should we believe that you can learn to drive seriously?
Good opportunities always favor those who work hard. If you are not convinced, just work harder in the future!"
Those lazy guys wanted to quibble, but Zhou Chuanjing was too lazy to listen. He directly asked the militia to drive them aside and sent people to guard them to prevent them from causing trouble.
In the end, 23 people met the criteria for drawing lots.
Zhou Jiaxing was successfully selected because he got the "driving lessons" note early on.
After the family quarters in their respective factories were built, the sons of Zhou Chuanyi and Zhou Chuanjing gave gifts to the directors and successfully got houses.
He also found a job for his wife in the factory, brought his wife and children to the city, and moved the family's household registration to the factory. Now they are all real city dwellers.
Zhou Tianci also moved to the city to study.
If you keep all the good things for yourself, you will be worried that someone will complain and it will be detrimental to your future work.
Zhou Chuanyi and Zhou Chuanjing promised those who did not get a place that once the trucks returned to the village, they would let the four people who had learned to drive set up a training class to teach the rest, and after they finished their studies, they could go to the city to find jobs on their own.
When everyone heard about this good thing, their originally depressed mood suddenly improved, and they praised Zhou Chuanyi and Zhou Chuanjing, saying that they were good cadres of the people...
After Zhou Rong received a call from Zhou Chuanyi on the fifth day of the first lunar month, he went to the automobile factory to find Ding Chunhua.
Ding Chunhua said that her application report had just been submitted to the factory director and the approval process would not be that quick.
Zhou Rong: "Sister, our factory is a key unit in the city and province, the factory director must be a very busy man, how can he have time to take care of such trivial matters?
It will probably be April before he can find the time to sign and approve. Is the factory director here today? Let's go and talk to him face to face and try to improve the workers' food and welfare as soon as possible."
Ding Chunhua thought about it and agreed to Zhou Rong's proposal.
Liu Xingguo, the director of the automobile factory, was demoted because the previous director was a conservative during the Leap Forward. The party secretary of the factory was his cousin's husband, but few people knew about this relationship, so he was promoted from director.
Although he thought the replacement idea was good, the workers were not upset and were happy to work, so he, as the factory director, also had some political achievements.
But there is no precedent for issuing instructions so quickly!
It would also make him seem like a factory director with no prestige.
Liu Xingguo: "I understand what you have reported. I will study the application materials and make an approval later."
Zhou Rong: "...Okay, we will supply the tractor factory first, and then we can support each other next year."
Liu Xingguo: "...young comrade, you promised us something, how can you go back on your word? This is not the style of a good cadre.
There is not even a supply amount on this application report. We need to discuss it. Please go back and wait. Once we have discussed it, we will give you the approval as soon as possible."
Zhou Rong: "Okay, I will go to the municipal government for a meeting with Director Liao in a few days. If the factory has any difficulties, Director Liu can tell me if it is convenient for you to disclose it. I will report it to the Municipal Party Committee during the meeting."
Liu Xingguo was shocked, then he realized that the other party was the section chief of the Municipal Industrial and Commercial Bureau, who had Liao Bowen as his backer, and Liao Bowen in turn had Commander Jiang as his backer.
If he offended someone too much, even as the factory director, he would not be able to save him even if his cousin-in-law stepped in.
Liu Xingguo changed his attitude and said kindly: "Everything is fine in our factory. Even if there are some minor problems, we can solve them ourselves. There is no need to trouble Comrade Xiao Zhou to report to the Municipal Party Committee.
I think the mutual support you just mentioned is very good. Our working brothers are a strong support for us to complete industrialization, and we cannot treat them badly. Our farmers work hard to grow crops, and they must not be wronged.
I have approved your application!"
Zhou Rong smiled and said, "Director Liu is worthy of being the leader of our automobile factory. Your vision and insight are unmatched by ordinary people. Under your leadership, the automobile factory will surely reach a higher level."
Liu Xingguo liked to hear people praise him for his ability. Before Zhou Rong had finished flattering him, he had already signed the application documents...
Liu Xingguo was not responsible for the specific supply amounts of vegetables and meat, which was left to Ding Chunhua, the head of the personnel department.
If the workers have complaints, Ding Chunhua will naturally take the blame...
