After the Japanese side decided to withdraw the investment, the process went very quickly, and after a few days, all the technical personnel were withdrawn. Large swathes of the institute's offices are vacant.

Zhao Chunda looked at the empty corridor and remembered the scene when Soviet experts withdrew from China.

Maozi is ruthless, and the devil has no intention.

Lu Jianfei specially flew from Beijing to Jiangbei Oilfield and brought two bottles of Moutai to comfort his old comrade-in-arms of the Ministry of Petroleum. Considering that the Chinese personnel in the institute also need a transition period, Zhao Chunda simply gave all the researchers three days off.

Three days later, he convened all the researchers and made a mobilization meeting, focusing on the future tasks of the institute on the development and improvement of the second generation of diamond drill bits, that is, diamond composite chip drill bits. The sixth grinding wheel factory is ready to complete the samples as soon as possible, so that it can be put into production to meet the Canton Fair customers in two months.

Compared with the research institute, Zhao Yuemin's machine repair factory is more troublesome. Orders were suddenly lost, and half of the workers in the workshop were left with nothing to do.

I arrived on time to work, but there was nothing to do in the workshop. The workers had to take out poker and chess to pass the time. Zhai Jun, the director of the workshop, wanted to stop it at first, but found that there was really nothing to do after stopping it, and the factory director did not say anything, so he couldn't let the workers stand stupidly in front of the machine tool one by one. In the end, Zhai Jun took a newspaper and hid in the office to turn a deaf ear.

Playing cards and chess is good, and there are some restless young workers who always complain about the factory director Zhao Yuemin. It is believed that Nippon played a trick on Jiangbei Oilfield Machinery Factory on this point, withdrew the order, and only paid a little liquidated damages. Many workers were strong-spirited, holding shovels and shovels, shouting that they would go to Nanjing to settle accounts with the Japanese consulate.

There were also more brawls in Shaohu Town, and the idle workers began to compare with the local youth again. Everywhere there were bricks flying around, and there was constant shouting and scolding.

After Zhao Yuemin learned about the situation, he understood that he must not indulge the workers like this again. In 1983, when the central authorities were cracking down on all kinds of serious crimes, and in the face of the increasingly rampant crime problem, the central authorities ordered that all kinds of serious criminal offenses should be severely cracked down on, and that judgments and executions should be carried out with severity and speed.

In several nearby cities, trucks full of police officers in white uniforms patrol the streets. In this special period, hooliganism, robbery, and theft can all be punishable by death, not to mention brawls.

Zhao Yuemin understands that if the workers are allowed to continue like this, there will be big problems if they don't get it right. He immediately went out into the streets with the cadres of the factory to persuade the workers to return, and at the same time held a labor contest in the factory.

Don't the workers have a lot of strength? Tug-of-war competition, tubing competition, 100-meter race, take turns one after another. See if you can still toss?

In the past, the class struggle had to be talked about every year, every month, and every day. Zhao Yuemin has been holding tug-of-war competitions for months, and there are them every day. No matter how good the health of those young workers is, they can't withstand this kind of toss, and they all complain about the river after a month, saying that they are more tired than going to work.

At present, the sample design of diamond composite sheet has reached the final stage of perfection. The new product has not yet been put into production, and the Canton Fair will be held in two months. Zhao Yuemin has a free period, but he is also in a vacuum period with nothing to do.

"Yuemin, I've been a little idle lately." Yao Gang, the driver of Hu Dong's team, came to visit the door. Yao Gang is not tall, has a flexible brain, and is articulate, which contrasts with the taciturn Hu Dong. In the team business, it has become Hu Dong's wonderful partner.

"What about idleness? Look at the newspapers. Zhao Yuemin sat lazily on the sofa in the office, shaking the newspaper in his hand.

"What's the point of reading the newspaper, why don't you find a few young girls to hug ......," Yao Gang smirked.

"You kid, you're going to be a hooligan? Now it's a hard ......."

"What nonsense? Do you think hugging a girl is a hooligan? Yao Gang shook his head and said, "Zhao Yuemin, your factory is well managed, but you can't keep up with the situation." Ballroom dancing is popular now, do you understand? Dancing with the girls ......"

"There's a place to dance now?" Zhao Yuemin was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself why he didn't know.

"How fresh." Yao Gang shook his head and said, "The dance hall was also made by me, and it is in the oil field canteen." Five cents a ticket, a lot of boys and girls go. ”

"You kid, you're going to make money......"

"Compared with the dignified Director Zhao, I am a small witch." Yao Gang smiled, "How about going to be lively at night?" The workers in your factory, as well as our Red Star team, there are many people who go. ”

"This ......"

"Hey, Yuemin, how do you ...... like a girl"

"Okay, just go!"

Ballroom dancing made its way to China in the fifties. The original ballroom dancing was transmitted by the People's Liberation Army when Changde was liberated. At that time, many of the southbound cadres who came to work in Changde were still older unmarried men, and in order to solve their marriage problems, as described in the TV series "The Years of Burning Passion", there were often government organizations and groups holding weekend galas.

In the 60s, the class struggle began to be emphasized in society, and the organs and organizations judged the situation and broke the four olds, and stopped ballroom dancing parties. Dancerooms are also closed. Ballroom dances, traditional Yangge dances, dragon and lion dances, and lotus-picking boats are all dormant and hibernating. Only the newly created "loyalty" character dance has dominated the coquettish for several years. In the 80s, the ballroom dance, which had disappeared for 16 years, danced with the spring breeze of reform and opening up. Some government agencies, organizations, enterprises, and institutions were the first to revive ballroom dance evenings.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Zhao Yuemin came to the cafeteria, and sure enough, he saw that it was full of light and sound.

Every night at six o'clock, after the canteen is sold, Yao Gang and others will move the greasy dining tables and chairs to the corner, take the initiative to pave the terrazzo floor, hang a devil lamp in the center of the lobby, hang colorful ribbon ropes, install stereo sound, and install spotlights around it.

During the day, the lights are not turned on, and they still eat normally. In the evening, it's a noisy ballroom.

There are really a lot of young men and women, many of them are female workers in the factory, take off their uniforms and change into their own clothes, but they also look young and beautiful.

Colourful lights flickered in the ballroom, and young men and women gathered in a circle. The girl was a little shy and waited for someone to invite her to dance. The boys are pushing and shoving, hoping that someone will take the initiative to make the first bird.

As soon as Zhao Yuemin entered, he originally wanted to stand quietly to the side and watch the excitement. Unexpectedly, many female workers and local young women recognized him.

"Director Zhao!"

"Director Zhao!"

A cordial and enthusiastic call came from all sides of the ballroom.

In particular, the female workers in the factory and the oil field enthusiastically surrounded Zhao Yuemin. The young women in the area were also very curious about why a man suddenly came, and so many girls surrounded him.

"Director Zhao, why are you here?" The female workers gathered around Zhao Yuemin. This kind of dance hall, basically the workshop director will not come, and suddenly, a factory director came, and everyone was surprised.

At this time, Zhao Yuemin, wearing fashionable jeans and shirts, was a young and handsome boy.

"Director Zhao, dance with me."

Young women in turn made invitations, breaking the rule that boys invite girls.

Zhao Yuemin saw a lot of hands stretched out towards him, and thought to himself if Tang Seng had entered the Pansi Cave or what?

He shook his hand and prepared to withdraw from the encirclement, but he didn't expect his hand to be grabbed and dragged to the center of the dance floor.

Before Zhao Yuemin could see the other party's appearance clearly, he felt the two of them on his shoulders.

When he opened his eyes and took a closer look, he said tremblingly:

Hu Lin...... What are you doing here? ”
