Grandpa and Mom went back to their home in the city the next day, the room on the eldest brother's side was big enough, Chen Xu asked to live here on the grounds of work, but his mother did not force him to move out and let him continue to live in his childhood room.

With the care of his family, the room was quiet and undisturbed, so Chen Xu lived a life of eating, drinking, sleeping, and living without worrying.

The status quo of backward factory equipment cannot be changed in the short term, and it is likely that he will do nothing for a long time when he goes to work in the factory, so he hides in his room all day long and insists on his great business of copying pictures, ignoring what is going on outside the window.

He had to draw hundreds of thousands of industrial designs in his limited life, and most of them were time-limited, and the benefits could only be maximized before they were studied in other countries, and the value would depreciate greatly over time. Therefore, copying pictures has always been his main job, and he cannot be slackened.

As for the list, since my father personally sent it to Beijing that night, there has been no news. After asking the eldest brother, I learned that Director Chen, the commander of the Iron Army, and the four policemen who were present that night were also taken to Beijing, and it should be that the Military Intelligence Bureau was completely blocking the news.

The Chen family is a military family, and Chen Hu has promised that he will never leak the news, so the Military Intelligence Bureau did not restrain the Chen family.

As for Chen Xu himself, he doesn't know what the reason is, the Military Intelligence Bureau did not send anyone to contact him. Chen Xu was at ease, but even if the Military Intelligence Bureau came to the door, he had already thought about resigning to cover it up, so he didn't have to worry about anything.

Chen Xu worked as an intelligence officer in the Military Intelligence Bureau for most of his life in his previous life, and he was too clear about their methods.

Although this group of guys did not show up, they definitely sent people to hide near their homes to monitor. What they are guarding against is not the Chen family, but they are worried that other forces will jump over the wall and pose a danger to the Chen family.

Chen Xu was even able to easily find out where these guys were hiding, but in order to avoid embarrassment, Chen Xu acted as if he was nothing, and lived as usual every day, as if he didn't know that these people existed.

A few days later, the eldest brother took Chen Xu to his parents' house in the city for dinner. Dad still stayed in Beijing and did not come back, and the official affairs were temporarily taken over by the deputy director.

Grandpa still looks like an old god, but his heart is much higher, and his eyes are blazing. Although the old man refused to tell the truth, looking at his grandfather's eager appearance, he could vaguely guess that the Military Intelligence Bureau should have set up a situation and was ready to arrest people at any time.

The sea before the storm was calm, and this list is a category 12 typhoon, which can quickly cause rough seas. Chen Xu is just the one who lit the fuse, the arrest and interrogation and the subsequent shock of officialdom have nothing to do with him, he will only hide far away and watch the changes in the situation and observe the impact of this incident on history.

After returning from his parents' house, half a month has passed, the storm is still brewing, and Chen Xu's comfortable life has come to an end, because his work arrangement has come down!

On this day, Chen Xu accompanied his little nephew to breakfast, and his sister-in-law sent him to school. The eldest brother, who was sitting on the sofa and reading the newspaper with Erlang's legs crossed, suddenly instructed Chen Xu, who was about to go back to the room: "It's been a few days since you came back, although I don't know what you write and draw in the house every day, but if you hide in the house every day and don't go out, people will get bored." After discussing with my grandfather yesterday, I decided to let you work in an electric fan factory first. ”

"Electric Fan Factory...... Is it a subordinate unit of a machine factory? Chen Xu turned around, burped, and said with a frown.

Chen Weiguo put down the newspaper, shook his head and explained: "It's not a subordinate unit, it's a workshop used to produce electric fans in the tank factory, and grandpa arranged for you to go to this workshop as a workshop director." ”

"I said that you are also a military factory that makes tanks, and it is strange enough to produce tractors, but you even have an electric fan business, and you don't do the main business, but the side business is booming." Chen Xu suddenly felt funny, a serious military factory does not make weapons, but produces civilian products, this should be a national characteristic!

Chen Weiguo said dissatisfiedly: "It would be nice if it could really be prosperous, it is all a small business with a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, nothing more than some electric fans, pressure cookers, gas canisters and the like, all of which can't make a lot of money." I don't know what grandpa thinks, assign you to manage the electric fan workshop, that thing is to make a few bucks no matter how good it is! ”

"Big brother, you're not right!" Chen Xu returned to his seat, stretched out a finger and shook his head: "This tank can only be built a few times a year!" Electric fans are not, every household across the country is a must-have, if you can open up sales, the profit is astronomical, so you don't underestimate these small household appliances, small profits but quick turnover, they are often the most profitable. ”

"I pondered, grandpa was probably worried that you had not learned anything in the Soviet Union for five years of eating, drinking and merrymaking, and did not dare to give you too high a position, for fear of revealing the bottom and making people laugh. So temporarily arrange for you to engage in the electric fan business, anyway, this electric fan business is also half-dead, even if you do it down, you will not complain about anything, if you do a good job, it will be a great credit, and no one will gossip about you when the time comes. ”

Chen Weiguo said what they were most worried about, even if the Chen family was powerful, but the face still had to be done, and Chen Xu could not be entrusted with a heavy task as soon as he came back, which would give people a sense of cronyism, which would cause Chen Xu's foundation to be unstable and affect his future future.

Chen Xu didn't know how hard his grandfather worked for his future, so he finally arranged this job for him.

An electric fan is an electrical appliance with no technical content, and he doesn't have a design drawing of an electric fan in his memory, but it's not a problem. As the so-called familiar with 300 Tang books, he can't compose poems and can chant, and his mind is full of high-tech design drawings, and after he understands it, he will get an electric fan out, which is not a matter for him at all.

Since grandpa was skeptical about his own ability, Chen Xu decided to use the electric fan as a breakthrough to make achievements, let grandpa know that he was not a straw bag, and then rest assured that he would hand over the tank factory to him to take over!

The identity of the director of the tank factory is very important, don't look at the mechanical factory usually inconspicuous, now it has been reduced to building tractors, and it is possible to go bankrupt and close down in a few years. But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and it cannot be denied that as long as the factory does not fall, it is still a large military factory, and the name of the factory director can still control the scene.

If Chen Xu wants to go abroad to buy industrial production lines in the future, this title of factory director can reflect its importance.

If he negotiates the price in the name of a private person, foreign manufacturers will immediately expose the essence of profiteers, maliciously raise the price and even use defective products to fill the number, and slaughter you as a fish on the board.

If you change to the identity of a big ** factory boss to negotiate the price, the other party will think that this is a long-term big business, you must eat and drink well, and then take out all the family resources for you to choose. The important thing is that there will be a lot more room for price reduction, and you don't even have to pay the full amount, and the name of the boss of the military factory itself is full of credit, and there is no problem with installment payment.

Chen Xu understands that when he returns to China, he must abide by the rules of the system, no matter how good a talent he is, when he enters the system, he can only start from the simplest things.

Only when you have learned enough experience from the grassroots level, established a trustworthy personal image in the factory, and become mature, can you take on great responsibilities.

So he acquiesced to his grandfather's arrangement, quickly changed his clothes and left the house, and went to the workshop where electric fans were produced under the leadership of his eldest brother to familiarize himself with the situation.

The electric fan workshop is actually a parts casting workshop among the many casting workshops of the tank factory, as the name suggests, this workshop is the place where the steel ingots and steel plates sent from the steel factory are cast into parts.

Walking on the way to work on the yellow mud road, the dog tail grass on the side of the road grew to more than half a person's height after a rainstorm last night, Chen Xu tore off a pinch and shook it in his hand to play. The eldest brother held a cigarette and walked leisurely in front.

The surrounding crowd is bustling and very lively, everyone is a factory worker, very familiar with each other, walking all the way and chatting. The workers on the road saw that Chen Weiguo just simply said hello, and did not deliberately come to please people, and the skilled workers in this era are not only very high-spirited, but also very united. You must have the ability to suppress them, if you are an incompetent leader, it is common for the subordinate workers to not bird you, and if you encounter a thorn to hit you, it is possible!

Many people saw Chen Xu who was following Chen Weiguo, and they all cast strange eyes, and when they asked, they knew that it was the fifth son of the Chen family, and the workers knew a little bit about the factory director's family situation, so it was not too strange, just to say hello to Chen Xu and get acquainted.

The electric fan workshop covers an area not very large, only seven or eight hundred square meters, and it is a large bungalow with gray walls and red tiles. As soon as you enter the workshop, your nose is flushed with a strange mixture of rust, oil, musty and sweat. The roof is triangular and supported by countless steel beams, from which many white bulbs and ceiling fans hang down. There is no concept of hygiene in the workshop, and there are piles of parts and scraps, rust residues, oil bottle rags, etc.

The workshop is not big, there are no less than ten stamping machine tools, grinders, planers, drilling machines, more than 50 workers are randomly distributed in the workshop, some are chatting, some are drinking tea and reading newspapers, and there are only about a dozen or so people working next to the machine.

Chen Weiguo was accustomed to such a lazy working atmosphere, and after entering the house, he did not get angry but smiled and clapped his hands vigorously, attracting everyone's attention and said: "Everyone temporarily stop what they are doing, I have something to announce here!" ”
