Chapter 56 From Fuyou Street to Jingxi Hotel
The notice of the mobilization meeting was handed over to Gu Biao by Han Ting herself. When she gave Gu Wei a thorough explanation, the wording she said was similar to Ye Kun's gossip.
But that wasn't the end of the story.
Han Ting asked about Gu Biao's volunteer very responsibly: "Originally, the counterpart internships were directly arranged by the ministry, I think you are quite assertive and talented, respect your own opinions." ”
Gu Biao was very moved, and felt that Teacher Han took too much care of himself: "Then what choice do I have?"
Han Ting obviously did her homework and answered easily: "There are many departments that have received this time. But the military and national defense are not for you to go. The rest are mainly propaganda, foreign trade, and other foreign affairs bureaus of various industrial departments, and I think you can do all of them, depending on your own inclination. ”
"I won't think about the propaganda department. Gu Biao vetoed one first, although he wrote two awesome editorials and became a typical example, but he knew that it was really if he fought on the crooked front all year round, there would be no goods in his stomach.
Then, he subconsciously asked: "The foreign trade department is a business ...... Uh, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation?"
"Where does the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation come from, it is the Ministry of Foreign Trade. Han Ting corrected in surprise, unable to figure out how the wrong name was fabricated by Gu Biao.
Gu Biao actually had an impression, and as soon as he was reminded by Han Ting, he immediately changed his words.
In his previous life, he did know that before 03 years, the predecessor of the Ministry of Commerce was called the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation. However, it has not been examined the year in which the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation appeared.
At present, it seems that at least in 1979 there was only the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and there was no word "Jing".
Han Ting explained to him a little bit about the functions and powers of the Ministry of Trade, and Gu Biao understood the difference between it and the later Ministry of Commerce:
The Ministry of Foreign Trade is a yamen that is only responsible for managing the import and export of physical goods, regardless of any foreign trade in services, as well as technical cooperation and intellectual property cooperation.
In this way, there is not much room for him, a science and engineering student in his previous life, to play, and he is not studying international trade.
Gu Biao still tends to do something technological.
He naturally thought of an example: "Teacher Han." As you know, I have participated in the project of localization of helium machine, if in the future the country finds that this technology is internationally leading and has the value of foreign technology licensing. So which department should be responsible for taking the lead in the relevant organizational work?"
Of course, Gu Biao knew that the technology of the "membrane helium machine" was internationally leading, but there was no patent law in China now, so he could only ask in a hypothetical tone.
Fortunately, before the reopening, the country was very closed, and my father's factory had never taken out the prototype after it was built, but only made a set according to the central order, and no one had published relevant papers, so foreigners still did not know the existence of this technology, and it was not preemptively registered.
(Of course, even if it is preemptively registered, as long as there is no patent law in China until '84, then domestic goods can still be sold in China, but there may be obstacles to export.) )
Han Ting didn't even think about it: "Foreign technical cooperation? It depends on which department's technology it is." At present, the state has a foreign affairs bureau from the first machine department to the fourth machine department. The first light department and the second light department have foreign-related divisions. Your father's factory is managed by the First Machinery Department, so you have to find the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the First Machinery Department. ”
This kind of management model, laymen may feel a little confused when they see it, but this was the case in China at that time.
It was only later that the central government realized that there were several political problems here, that the Ministry of Foreign Trade and the foreign technical cooperation management units of various ministries of industry were merged to form the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation in 1982.
Gu Biao made up his mind: "Then can I intern in the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the First Ministry of Aircraft? The school does not stipulate that there is an internship there, so I must work there after graduation in the future, right?"
Han Ting: "There are no rules, but don't think too much about it, the qualifications are your own, if you can intern and work in a unit, you will be promoted quickly." You don't want to waste your future, do you?"
Gu Biao: "I don't mean that, I'll just ask about the policy." ”
Han Ting: "Okay, I'll give you a letter of introduction based on this." ”
Gu Biao was very grateful: "Thank you." ”
Han Ting put on a relaxed face: "Don't relax." It's just a matter of making the intention first. Until the end of the war with the Vietnamese, your internship was still on the side of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. If you have the chance, be sure to complete the last mission. We only have people who have been transferred from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but there are no deserters!"
Gu Biao expressed understanding.
The last shift of the hawks is not yet finished.
……
Early the next morning, Gu Biao cautiously rushed to Fuyou Street.
According to the notice and letter of introduction, find a small inconspicuous door on the east side of the street.
To what extent is this door inconspicuous? So much so that later generations of Baidu/AutoNavi maps disdainfully marked it.
Although Google Maps dares, it can be harmonious in the flesh if it marks the map app that should not be labeled.
There were several comrades of the guard regiment standing at the door, Gu Biao handed over the documents and notices, they carefully checked them several times, and then looked at Gu Biao's appearance, as if they were surprised by Gu Biao's youth.
So, let Gu Biao wait here.
After a while, there were three or five people waiting together at the door, the few who came later than Gu Biao, any one pulled out, at least twice as old as Gu Biao.
One of them, a man in his fifties with a weathered face, snorted disdainfully when he saw Gu Biao so young, as if he was ashamed to be in the company of people who had not dried up.
At that moment, another guard came out of the door, whispering a few words to the guards on the door.
The guard guarding the door pointed to Gu Ao's group of people, and then the person who came out of it said politely: "Let everyone please follow me, you must follow closely after entering, and you can't walk around." ”
Gu Biao looked left and right, the others were not surprised at all, they should have been here, so they were all more experienced than him.
He secretly thought in his heart: It seems that if he wants to come here, even if he has all the documents, he has to wait for the special guards to accompany him, and he can't go around by himself.
Gu Biao walked around the platform of the Carved Beam Painting Pavilion for a while, and when he was a little dizzy and couldn't remember where he came from, he was finally led to a large conference hall.
Looking at the arrangement of chairs and cups in the conference hall, Gu Biao estimated that there would be hundreds of people attending, and it was not like discussing something, but the superiors unilaterally conveyed some spiritual instructions.
Because the meeting hadn't started yet, the leader naturally didn't arrive. The fifty-year-old man, who was very disdainful of Gu Biao just now, came in and caught a staff member he knew, and began to appeal:
"**, did the chief see the situation I reported the day before yesterday? We have done such a proud job on the diplomatic front to win glory for the country, how can we say that we have changed jobs?"
The person who was entangled and questioned by the old man, like the leader's secretary, explained bitterly:
"Director Huang, the chief really reads, and he understands your situation. But this is indeed a national need -- isn't this the reason why you are invited to come here today to unify your thinking and explain why?
Not only will you be transferred, but the chief will also be transferred, and it is not directed at anyone. Personally, I understand your difficulties very well - I have only been here for a few days, and the entry procedures here of the State WU Institute have not been completed, and I have to go to the Military Commission to do it again, who wants to toss. ”
Lao Huang seemed to be deflated, and sighed: "Can this be the same, you just graduated from Tsinghua University, and you haven't even started it, so you can do it wherever you transfer...... We are old bones, we have left the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and we can't go back to the Military Commission, and when we go to other places, we have to learn business again. ”
Gu Biao stood aside and watched coldly for a while, feeling that the young secretary was a little familiar. When I looked at it again, I found that although the other party squinted slightly, he couldn't hide the clear light hidden in his eyes.
After realizing this, he immediately looked at his nose and nose, and did not dare to listen to it anymore, but nodded slightly, and no longer looked up directly.
The secretary also saw Gu Biao, and also showed a surprised look, as if he was surprised that there was someone younger than him in the conference room today, so he nodded at Gu Biao.
Gu Wei, who was hiding to the side, roughly deduced the situation based on the words of the ear he had just scraped: No wonder a little minion like himself is also qualified to cross so many levels and participate in this kind of meeting.
It turned out that today was a reassuring/explaining meeting for the people who were about to be arranged, and it didn't actually solve anything. 100 people listened, and 101 people listened, so they didn't hesitate to add an extra chair and a cup, so that he could accompany the last seat.
It was as if an AOE magic had covered him, and he had been swept to a corner and shed a little blood.
Then his own boss took a group therapy with his backhand, although he didn't add blood to Gu Biao, but who let him stand in the magic range, so he added blood by the way.
However, this is also destined to be unable to say a word at the meeting, not even to make friends and be familiar with each other.
After waiting for about half an hour, the leader walked in, sat on the main seat, and began this mobilized tea party.
The specific contents, of course, are state secrets and cannot be written.
However, it is nothing more than to exhort everyone not to have burdens, not to be reluctant, and to emphasize the need to obey the arrangements of the state with the appearance of the chief.
During the period, there were naturally people who questioned quietly, all of them were like Lao Huang just now, emphasizing that they were old and could not learn the business skills of other departments. But they were all forcibly pacified.
The first time was precious, and only 15 minutes before and after, and finally announced that the secretary would take everyone to another place to deal with the aftermath.
The secretary cleared his throat: "Please be calm, there will be a car to pick you up and take you to the Jingxi Hotel in a while, where there will be comrades from the receiving ministry to discuss the specific arrangements." ”
"Why don't you finish it all at once here?" Some comrades in the army who did not understand asked softly without explaining the procedure.
The secretary explained appropriately: "This is the office space of the National WU Academy, since the leaders have been transferred to the Military Commission, and then occupy the space of the National WU Institute to deal with the aftermath. ”
No matter how small things in the Forbidden City are, when it comes to reputation positioning, it is not a trivial matter, and it cannot cross the line at all. Everyone accepted the premise.
Gu Biao was also stuffed into the car.
All the way to Jingxi Hotel.
