On the evening of the last day of November, Zhang Yifu sat in the dispatch room of the North China Bureau, next to Zhao Wenyuan, Lu Tao and others, and in front of several dispatchers.

For more than a month, most of the comrades of the Energy Conservation Office were still on the front line, Zhang Yifu took two people back to the bureau first for official business, and within two days of returning, he finally waited for the last unit of the last power plant to be started and connected to the grid after overhaul.

A few minutes later, with the grid connection of this unit, it not only meant the end of the annual maintenance of all generator sets dispatched by the North China Bureau in 1991, but also drew an end to the energy-saving project that lasted for more than half a year.

Things related to safety production cannot be relaxed even at the last second.

Although Zhang Yifu is already very tired, he still hangs the string in his heart, staring at the electronic screen, with the closure of the switch of the unit, the things that have been busy for nearly a year can be handed over, and in the last few minutes, whoever dares to drop the chain will kill whom.

Almost at the moment when the electronic watch showed [18:00:00], several small red lights on the monitoring screen lit up, and the phone rang immediately.

Zhao Wenyuan breathed a long sigh of relief: "It's hard work, stick to your post." ”

"It's another year. Lu Tao could only rub his head with feelings.

"It's over?" Zhang Yifu asked the two.

"It's over. Zhao Wenyuan smiled indifferently, "What do you think is going to happen? Set off firecrackers, beat gongs and drums, and the leaders rushed in to express their condolences and commend them?"

Zhang Yifu smiled dumbly, looking at the plain and slightly tired people around him, and only then did he realize more deeply the hard work of scheduling, a year of stable scheduling, and 365 days and nights of perseverance, just passed without applause. Maybe the leader will praise him at the meeting, but that's it, a qiē, a qiē, in the wry smile of Zhao Wenyuan and Lu Tao.

This year, however, was a little different.

After Zhang Yifu made sure that he was "done," he suddenly jumped up: "Hard work, everyone! Hard work! We can still complete the task as scheduled despite the fact that our energy-saving office has added so much trouble! Everyone is waiting! I invite you to eat dumplings!"

"Huh. Lu Tao was the first to laugh. "Director Zhang, we received the kindness, and we have to be on duty here, next time, next time. ”

"Eh, do you want to have dinner on duty!" Zhang Yifu laughed and yelled outside the door, "Come in!"

When the words fell, I saw two young men carrying two huge bags and smiling into the dispatch room. A strong aroma of dumplings wafted in immediately.

"This ...... Really, Director Zhang?" Lu Tao was first shocked, then happy, and then worried.

Surprised, you really invite us to eat dumplings now?

Xi is the gratitude in my heart, I have helped you so much, although the dumplings are not worth a few dollars, but after all, it is a heart, I have done a lifetime of scheduling, and I have always been obedient to all aspects. Zhang Yifu was the first to express his gratitude in this way.

Worry is worrying about discipline...... Eat dumplings during the shift. Seemingly......

But seeing that Zhao Wenyuan next to him also laughed, he nodded: "Leave two staff on duty to supervise the plate, if there is something clever, hurry up and speak." Others come and eat, and don't forget to keep an eye on the grid while eating. ”

Hearing what the immediate boss said, several young dispatchers immediately called out excitedly. Damn, I've wanted to try to gather in the dispatch room for dinner.

The amount of dumplings prepared by Zhang Yifu is really sufficient, with soda, each person is divided into two large boxes, and chili oil and garlic juice are also prepared, which is really in place.

The Energy Conservation Office and the Dispatch Office are two people. They ate dumplings and gulped and drank without looking at them, finally bringing some praise for this tiring day, and finally knowing that someone really thanked them.

"I can't think of it! I can't think of ......it," Lu Tao, who has always been weak, was a little moved as he chewed the meat-stuffed dumplings, "Look, we are all science students, how can Director Zhang make these things upside down?"

"Are you saying that I didn't do it well?" Zhao Wenyuan asked pretending to be dissatisfied.

"No...... Don't dare, don't dare to ......" Lu Tao was so frightened that a mouthful of dumplings stuck in his throat and choked for a long time.

"Hahaha!" Zhao Wenyuan immediately laughed, "If you eat something, eat it quickly." ”

After that, he looked at the young dispatchers who were laughing and playing with each other for dumplings with different fillings, and sighed sincerely: "The dispatch room has not been so lively for a few days." ”

"Rejoice once in a while. Zhang Yifu also dipped in vinegar and smiled, "All year round, in front of the cold screen, those young people, you have to let them release their passion." ”

"What? You're not a young man?"

"It's hard to say, I'm physically and mentally exhausted, and I don't grow old before I get old. Zhang Yifu sighed with a bitter face.

"Haha!" Zhao Wenyuan was amused again, "This energy-saving project has really wasted a lot of your effort, I thought it was too late this year, but I didn't expect time to really let you out." ”

"It's all supported by the leadership, or I haven't even finished the plan now. Zhang Yifu said and held up the soda, "Thank you Director Zhao and Director Lu for your continued support." ”

Zhao Wenyuan couldn't drink it cold, but he still picked up his teacup and gave Zhang Yifu this face, and Lu Tao also clinked glasses with Zhang Yifu and accepted this good intention.

After the cheerful dumpling dinner, Zhang Yifu returned to the office with Wen Tianming and Lin Shaocong, and the two of them quickly sent the number jù that had just been summed up.

"This is the analytical reckoning jù. Wen Tianming pointed to the form and said, "Although it is only a week's operation, according to the experience of northern Hebei, it is not a problem for those power plants to reach this level together." ”

"Hmm. Zhang Yifu leaned back in his chair, looked at the column of numbers, and finally stopped at "396".

From more than 400 to more than 390, if you change it to physical coal, it is not even a small briquette, and after working for so long, it is not easy to say that I love you!

Regarding the matter of saving coal and saving energy, Zhang Yifu is almost the first in China to engage in big fanfare, and now he has finally made a small achievement, although the final result depends on the average number after three months of smooth operation, but it should not be much different from the "396" in front of him.

"Thank you for your hard work. Zhang Yifu put down the form and smiled at the two people, "We have always been strong in the process of doing things, but when we are rewarding meritorious deeds, we must put down our posture appropriately, and don't give me a tail before this number is finally implemented." ”

"That must be, Director Zhang. Lin Shaocong smiled, "Can I also notify the comrades on the front line to return?"

"If you make sure it's safe, come back. Zhang Yifu rolled up his sleeves and looked at his arm and said, "In the past two months, I have been dark." (To be continued......)
