Chapter 222: Breaking the Ice
There is a saying that the truth is unbreakable: the future is bright and the road is dark.
Although Gowen had expected that things would not go as well as he wanted, the reality of hitting walls everywhere still gave him a hint of insight in his heart, the red line on the political zhì is not so easy to step on!
In the past few days, Govern approached Cao Weiye, director of the Political Affairs Department of the Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau, Director Wang of the Public Security Bureau, the relevant leaders of the Shanghai Civil Affairs Bureau, and even visited the relevant departments of the Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau, but none of the departments gave him a clear answer. Cao Weiye even frowned in the tone of an acquaintance to persuade him not to mess around and be careful of getting into trouble.
whereas
At this time, it was already the 6th of June, and "Soldier Assault" continued to maintain a rapid sales situation, with a total of 470,000 copies sold, creating a miracle in the sales of military novels in the past ten years. plus "Soldier Assault" on "Wen Wei Po"
** The serialization is gradually getting better, and there must be many hot topics discussed in the whole society, and there are seven steel companies.
The sensation of "Soldier Assault" has not only aroused the concern of readers across the country, but also attracted the attention of China's top leaders.
With the surging enthusiasm of supporting the army and loving the people in the society, as well as the condolences to the officials and people on the front line of the Laoshan Campaign, some leaders, especially the military bigwigs, have paid attention to it, after all, this kind of people's thinking and repercussions are in line with the country's thinking.
On the morning of June 5, a very important meeting was being held in Běijīng, which was attended by the head of the China Beida Military Region and the leaders of the Zhōngyāng Military Commission, which was a meeting to discuss whether it was necessary to send troops from the Beida Military Region to participate in the border war between China and Vietnam, and whether the Vietnamese army could be used to train and promote the growth of the squadron.
When a group of bigwigs finished the meeting and sat in the conference room chatting, the commander of the Kunming Military Region, Zhang Kengxiu, was chatting about the current fighting situation on the border, and inadvertently talked about the crew of "Garland Under the Mountain" that had just finished filming in Yunnan, and then the generals followed this topic and talked about "Soldier Assault", which now has a very strong response in society.
Although most of the old chiefs didn't know about Gowen, they had also seen or heard of Soldier Assault.
As a result, the leaders of some other military regions ridiculed the commander of the Nanjing Military Region with jealousy, Xiang Shouzhi, the old chief, one by one, a heroic company like the Hard Sixth Company, which of our military regions does not have it, and there are so many companies that died in the self-defense and counterattack against Vietnam, how can there be a writer who wrote a book and a biography for your Nanjing Military Region's Hard Sixth Company?!
Tsk, I wrote the hard six companies into the steel seven companies, damn it, this is too obvious! Isn't this unfair to the future recruitment work of our major military regions?
Xiang Shouzhi, the old head of the Nanjing Military Region, accepted everyone's eyes with a smile, and then said with a smile: "I have read this "Soldier Assault", and I think this is the best work of military-themed novels since the founding of the People's Republic of China!" ”
For these words, all the leaders nodded in agreement, although they are all in high positions now, but none of them are from the red imps and warriors of the year. Although the book "Soldier Assault" describes the stories of ordinary soldiers in peacetime, the stories about comrades-in-arms, training, and growth in the novel can see their own shadows.
What a good book indeed!
At this time, Yang Dezhi, then chief of the General Staff of the People's Liberation Army, nodded and said: "I have read this book, it is indeed very good!" Hasn't our military always engaged in cultural, educational, and propaganda? In my opinion, the bigwigs of your major military regions can set this book as one of the recommended books for the cultural reading of the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level...,,"Not bad, not bad." ”
"Great idea! When I go back, I will ask the equipment department to organize the purchase of this book and distribute it to various companies! ”
When the leaders heard the advice of the chief of the general staff, their eyes couldn't help but light up, why didn't they think about this problem.
So inadvertently, a sentence from the superior made the sales of Govyn's "Soldier Assault" explode even more!
At this time, General Qin Jiwei, commander of the běijīng military region and commander-in-chief of the 1984 National Day military parade, also nodded and said: "The author of this book is a very talented young man, and I have read a series of articles called the rise of great powers that he serialized in magazines...... A few days ago, when I went to the Zhōngyāng People's Broadcasting Station, I heard that He Jingzhi of the Central Propaganda Department was planning to broadcast these articles on the radio, and he was nervously selecting a recorder......"
"The rise of great powers?"
"Oh, it's serialized in that "Reader" magazine in Gansu, right? Very interesting indeed! ”
The highest-ranking generals of the republic were talking casually with the divergence of their thoughts, who said that the chief must remain dignified and old-fashioned? Who said that the chief must not gossip?
The scene that happened a day ago in Běijīng naturally would not reach the outside world, and naturally it would not reach Gowen's ears, at this time, he and Chen Hongjun and Wei Jianguo looked at each other head-on, worried about the establishment of this veterans poverty alleviation foundation.
Wei Jianguo and Chen Hongjun have already read Gowen's plan. I have to say that the plan made by Govin is very perfect, the purpose of the foundation is clear, the flow of funds is open, and various management systems and regulations are very perfect. At the beginning, because of the Wenchuan earthquake, in order to let the money he donated really fall into the hands of the victims, he had a very detailed understanding of some charities, but he didn't expect to use these materials now.
"zhèngfǔ ignored my application because even they are not sure about the current policy of the state, although the constitution clearly stipulates that citizens have the right to association, but since the founding of the People's Republic of China, except for the Soong Ching Ling Foundation, there has not been a single case of the same, and the Soong Ching Ling Foundation was established by the party zhōngyāng, and our personal application is a different matter......" Ge Wen said to Chen Hongjun and Wei Jianguo about his understanding.
"The Veterans Poverty Alleviation Foundation is a non-profit social welfare organization, and there are no problems in its operation, so I'm afraid that the biggest concern is the risk of both politics and policy!
No one can afford this responsibility! Wei Jianguo's words hit the crux of the matter.
"We are sincerely helping those veterans, why is it so difficult!" Chen Hongjun also had no recruitment.
Just when the three of them were sad, Sun Qiang walked in with a small table, as soon as he came in, he saw the thinking of the three of Gowen, and couldn't help but swing the table between the three of them angrily, and then in the process of the food and chopsticks on the table swaying, he shouted with a big grin: "Eat first, eat first." I said company commander, I've never seen you worry like this, you're not like this in the army, if you can't do it, go to the battalion commander, if the battalion commander can't do it, go to the regiment commander, it's a big deal, let's go to the chief, the people of our army A can't do anything......"
The so-called speaker has no intention of listening, and when he heard Sun Qiang's loud shouting, Chen Hongjun and Wei Jianguo's eyes lit up at the same time.
What Sun Qiang said also has some truth, what he wants to do is to help those veterans, if such a thing is known to the chiefs, it will definitely be patted on the shoulder and applauded.
Since ancient times, the problem of military retirement has always been a headache for those leaders who love soldiers like children, and you must know that in this era, pensions and retirement allowances have always followed the regulations set during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. Even if the soldiers died, the pension was only 515 yuan, which could not compensate the families of the martyrs at all.
The head of the army sighed many times in the face of the families of the martyrs because he was speechless, and if they knew what they thought, they would definitely help him.
0. Chen Hongjun jumped up from the bench all of a sudden, which surprised Ge Wen and Sun Qiang, and Sun Qiang was so frightened that he took a few steps back, for fear that what he said just now would offend the company commander again.
Fortunately, as soon as Chen Hongjun stood up, he strode to Sun Qiang's side, slapped him on the shoulder, and laughed loudly: "I didn't see it, Sun Qiang, you kid is also smart!" ”
"Hey, hey." Sun Qiang smirked inexplicably.
And Wei Jianguo told Ge Wen about the method that he and Chen Hongjun had just come up with.
"It's a really good idea! If we can get the approval of the troop leaders, even if they don't do anything, our foundation has a lot of hope! After listening to Wei Jianguo's thoughts, Govin applauded.
The next meal, Govin ate was extraordinarily sweet.
After lunch, Chen Hongjun and Wei Jianguo left the Jiangdong Farm with the plan book for the establishment of the Veterans Poverty Alleviation Foundation and various related materials, and went to the Shanghai Jǐng Ring Headquarters to find the chief, while Ge Wen let go of the depression in his heart for the first time and walked briskly towards home.
As soon as I came to the door of my house, I saw Hang Jian, who had been circling outside the courtyard gate.
Seeing that Govyn was coming back, Hang Jian was far away, so he excitedly shouted to him one by one, "Govin, tell you good news, "Soldier Assault" has become the designated bibliography for troop procurement!" ”
"What?!" Ge Wen was shocked when he heard this, and immediately ran in front of Hang Jian, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Hang Jian spread the newspaper in his hand in front of Gowen's eyes and said: "This morning, the publishing house received a call from the Equipment Department of the Nanjing Military Region, saying that they want to order 200,000 copies of "Soldier Assault", and then you can read this report......
Hang Jian held the People's Liberation Army Daily in his hand, and a news article he pointed to reads: "...... In order to actively cultivate the cultural literacy and patriotic enthusiasm of the vast number of commanders and fighters, the Běijīng Military Region Command has decided to place "Soldier Assault" as a recommended book for the reading week of grassroots companies......"
How many books are going to be printed!
It was the only thought left in Govine's mind.
