Sometimes gift-giving is not about the value of the gift, but about the value of the person in your heart.

Seeing this fountain pen, Qin Gang finally breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that it is more effective for him to quickly repair the relationship with Duan Yun before, Duan Yun can buy him a gift, at least it shows that he has no hostility towards himself, Qin Gang is also an old fritter who is mixed in the officialdom, and he can see through the thoughts of ordinary young people at a glance.

However, this time, Qin Gang obviously thought that Duan Yun was a little too simple.

"I plan to do a new technical transformation project in the factory recently, and I hope that Director Qin will be able to support more ...... in the future," Duan Yun said with a smile.

After all, Qin Gang is the number one in the factory, if Duan Yun wants to modify such an important equipment as a milling machine, if Qin Gang does not agree, then Duan Yun will not be able to touch that machine.

Before, Duan Yun's modification of lathes was sneaky, even if there was a secretary as a backer, he didn't dare to be too obvious, but now Duan Yun is no longer on the night shift in a workshop, and he can only do it during the daytime when he wants to carry out technical transformation, and Duan Yun will not be able to complete the test without the factory director and the directors of each workshop to greet him.

At this time, Duan Yun could also see that Qin Gang was deliberately trying to win him over, and this was a good opportunity for Duan Yun to negotiate terms with him.

"You are a model worker and technical transformation expert in our factory, and now you are working in the technical department, if you want to do any technical transformation, I will fully support it!" Qin Gang simply agreed to Duan Yun's request, the matter is obvious, Duan Yun himself is a technician, and he has a certain authority in technical transformation, plus he has a successful case of technological transformation before, so no one will question him if Duan Yun's factory is tossed casually.

And for him, now is a good opportunity to win over Duan Yun, so this kind of thing of pushing the boat down the river, Qin Gang naturally agreed very happily.

"Thank you, Director Qin. Duan Yun said gratefully.

"When you go back, what workpieces do you need to process for technical transformation or need human help, you can tell the directors of each workshop, and just say that I approve it!" Qin Gang said to Duan Yun after putting away the fountain pen.

"Okay!" Duan Yun was waiting for Qin Gang's words.

"Then you're busy. Qin Gang said.

"Hmm. Hearing this, Duan Yun got up and left the factory director's office.

Now that Duan Yun has done a good job of the CNC circuit board of the gear hobbing machine, the remaining plastic shell molds and other workpieces can only be processed in the factory, with Qin Gang's support, Duan Yun can finally let go of his hands and feet to do it once.

As soon as Duan Yun walked to the door of the technical department, he saw that Cheng Qingyan had just finished settling down the work of the department and walked out head-on.

"It's back. After seeing Duan Yun, Cheng Qingyan greeted with a smile.

"Hmm. Duan Yun responded.

"I heard...... You've bought gifts for the rest of your colleagues in the department......" Cheng Qingyan asked.

"I gave them all out just now. Duan Yun naturally knew Cheng Qingyan's thoughts, the corners of his mouth hooked, and he deliberately said: "The schedule for negotiations abroad this time is relatively tight, and I don't have much time to go out to buy things, and those pens for the Corey people are all bought from foreign exchange brokerage stores......"

"Ah, it's okay, I know you're busy going abroad. Cheng Qingyan's clear eyes flashed a touch of disappointment when she heard this, but then she smiled and said to Duan Yun.

"Hehe, actually, ......"

"Duan Yun, the secretary is looking for you and asked you to go to his office. At this time, another staff member walked over quickly and said to Duan Yun.

"Uh, okay. Duan Yun, who had just returned to the factory, seemed to be a sweetheart, and after Duan Yun answered, he followed the clerk to the secretary's office.

"Hehe, how is Xiao Duan's situation going abroad this time?" Zhao Dongsheng said with a smile after seeing Duan Yun come in.

"It's good. When Duan Yun arrived at the secretary's office, he immediately became much more relaxed and casual, stepped forward to pick up Zhao Dongsheng's water cup, walked to the cabinet where the thermos was placed, filled him with hot water, and handed it over.

"It's also good for young people to go outside a lot, at least not to become frogs at the bottom of the well. Zhao Dongsheng picked up the water cup handed by Duan Yun and took a sip, a smile appeared on his face.

"Secretary Zhao, Director Qin called me to his office just now, and I just came out. Duan Yun smiled, and then said, "I gave him a fountain pen just now, and this one is for you......"

Duan Yun said, took out a beautiful pen case from his arms, and handed it to Zhao Dongsheng.

Duan Yun knew that he had just gone to Qin Gang's office, and Zhao Dongsheng would definitely know about it, so he simply explained the matter directly, so that it was not easy to arouse too much suspicion, after all, the two had been fighting openly and secretly for a long time, and Duan Yun still knew the subtleties.

"Hehe, let you break the bank. Zhao Dongsheng glanced at the pen case and said with a smile.

"I specially picked this fountain pen of yours, it is a gold-tipped one, and I bought this more advanced one when I went out this time. Duan Yun said.

"Uh. Zhao Dongsheng was stunned when he heard this, then opened the box, picked up the pen and glanced at it, and said: "This is really beautiful, and it will fall when you hold it, I ...... you buy such a valuable fountain pen."

"Secretary Zhao, you took such good care of me before, giving you this gift is nothing. Duan Yun's tone was sincere, and he continued: "Actually, I have also learned a lot from you during this time, in my heart, you are my mentor, and others cannot replace your place in my heart......"

Duan Yun's words were obviously loyal to Zhao Dongsheng,

"Hahaha!" Zhao Dongsheng laughed when he heard this, and said, "You are much smarter than I thought...... But to be honest, working as a translator in the city bureau will help you in your future, but I want to remind you that the water is deep and the doors are ......."

"I just want to follow you in the future, the factory is where I stand, and I won't leave. Duan Yun said with a deep groan.

"Hehe, in fact, I'm just giving you a suggestion, as for how to go, that's your business, and I believe that with your intelligence, you can do it well anywhere. Zhao Dongsheng paused, and then said: "In addition, I may not stay in the factory for long......"

"Huh?" Duan Yun was stunned when he heard this, and then asked in surprise: "Secretary Zhao, are you also going to be transferred?"

"Where did I go? I was in Hongxing when I first established the factory, and now it's been more than 20 years, do I have anywhere else to go besides this factory?" Zhao Dongsheng sighed, and then said: "The provincial bureau has issued a notice, before the end of the year, I will retire honorably......"

When Zhao Dongsheng said this, his tone was a little helpless.

In fact, Zhao Dongsheng once told him that he was going to retire before.

Before the 80s, there was no such thing as retirement for state cadres, and they basically lived to work until they were old, so much so that there were cases of leading cadres in their 70s or 80s dying of sudden illness and death at work.

In February 1982, the Central Committee issued the "Decision on the Establishment of a Retirement System for Veteran Cadres", which officially marked the abolition of the actual lifelong system of leading cadres.
