Chapter 5: The Initial Dream

As soon as Chen Geng's words came out, Li Jianguo and Wang Fusheng's faces were suddenly full of disappointment.

The first big good words are nonsense, and the next "but ......" is the point, alas, I thought I could find an excellent talent for the army, but now it seems that it has been in vain.

Chen Hongjun's temper is more anxious, and he has a better face...... Those who serve in the army have a good face...... In his opinion, people from the Ministry of National Defense have come to the door in person to invite, and in ancient times, it was the treatment of the level of the thatched house, and you just agreed to it, and you still hesitated to agree? !

This made Chen Hongjun unacceptable, why is the Ministry of National Defense not good? Where does the Ministry of National Defense not weigh your heart? Qi said: "Stinky boy, you give me ......"

But of course Chen Geng wouldn't let his father misunderstand him, as soon as Chen Hongjun opened his mouth, he interrupted him and said, "Dad, don't worry, listen to me first." ”

After speaking, regardless of his father, he turned his head to look at Li Jianguo and Wang Fusheng: "Comrade Li, Comrade Wang, don't hide it from the two of you, for my work unit, I have one principle: it must be a place where I can give full play to the skills I have learned." I hope to be able to go down to the grassroots, well, that's my dad's unit. ”

Wang Fusheng and Li Jianguo were dumbfounded: In these years, there are still people who would rather not go to the central ministries and commissions than go to the grassroots level? !

But they immediately believed that in this era, there are too many young people who are willing to dedicate themselves to their ideals, what is it to go to the grassroots level, and there are also those who go to remote mountainous areas? Although Chen Geng's approach seems a little naïve and naïve, this is the sun at 10 o'clock in the morning.

Patting Chen Geng's shoulder hard, Li Jianguo said with emotion: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!" Chen Geng's ambition is so great...... By the way, what is Comrade Chen Hongjun's work unit? ”

Chen Geng smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's the Third Ordnance Maintenance Factory of the East China Military Region." ”

What the?!

Li Jianguo and Wang Fusheng were all shocked on their faces, they thought that Chen Hongjun's unit should be a unit like the headquarters of the military region, but they didn't expect that it was just an ordnance repair factory under the military region, or the third ordnance repair factory?

What kind of grassroots is this, this is directly a pole and a pestle into the deep mountains and old forests.

Although Ma Chao was shocked, but fortunately, he had heard Chen Geng talk about it after all, and Wang Fusheng and Li Jianguo were completely shocked: "Your school ...... Is there an indicator of the lower level? ”

For the graduates of Peking University, Huaqing and the National People's Congress, they naturally want to stay in the capital, and countless institutions such as ministries and commissions, newspapers and so on in the capital are waiting for the arrival of these little fresh meat with their mouths open; For students, even going to work in the provincial committees and provincial governments of various provinces can be regarded as "exile", and Huaqing does not even have an indicator for graduates to go to local places.

For students who do not find a receiving unit on the eve of graduation, the worst situation is just waiting for the assignment of the school, but even the school assignment is assigned to the ministries and commissions of the capital, and the difference is nothing more than that the unit they go to may not be their favorite unit, but go to a repair shop under the military region? This distance is simply farther than the distance from Earth to Pluto.

Chen Hongjun looked at his son worriedly, and stopped talking, although he did not hesitate to do anything in order to "persuade" his son to go back with him, but now he has dispelled this idea, but what is the situation now? The son actually took the initiative to go down?

Giving Chen Hongjun a look of "you can rest assured", Chen Geng said embarrassedly: "There is no index, so I hope the two of you can help me with this......"

Without waiting for Chen Geng to finish speaking, Li Jianguo shook his head without hesitation and said, "No!" That's impossible! We ......"

He had already guessed what Chen Geng's idea was: Didn't Huaqing have an indicator for students to go directly to the grassroots level? It's easy to do, this guy can go to the Ministry of National Defense first, and after the Ministry of National Defense reports, then find a way to go to the Third Ordnance Maintenance Plant of the East China Military Region -- but this is absolutely impossible! Absolutely not allowed!

If it weren't for the coincidence that Chen Geng's father was an active officer, the Ministry of National Defense wouldn't even dare to fight Chen Geng's idea, who would dare to let such an excellent talent go to a place where birds don't shit, they don't have to wait until the next day, the boss of the ministry can immediately let the person who handles this matter roll up and get out!

But Wang Fusheng quickly and covertly pulled Li Jianguo's clothes, and said to Chen Geng with a smile on his face: "Classmate Chen Geng, do you really want to go down?" You have to understand that with your academic qualifications, there are many prospects for development in the capital than in the capital, and I sincerely recommend that you stay in the ministry, and if you really want to go down, you can stay for a few years, accumulate some work experience, and then go down. ”

Li Jianguo was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood his old friend's thoughts: first stabilize him and get people into the unit, as long as the people arrive in our unit, we still have the final say? As long as you go to the unit to report, do you want to go down? Without the release order of the unit, is it possible that you can still run out by yourself?

Thinking of this, Li Jianguo immediately nodded with a smile on his face: "That's right, classmate Chen Geng, but if you insist on going down, it's not without a chance, but I'll talk about it ......after you work in the ministry for a while."

Ma Chao couldn't care about anything else, nervously pulled Chen Geng aside, and asked in a low voice, "Third child, you're not joking, are you?" ”

"What do you think?" Chen Geng asked rhetorically.

"I ......" Ma Chao couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"We've worked hard for four years, remember what we said in our freshman year? If we want to use the skills we have learned to revitalize the country's engine industry, if I go to other units, do you think I still have a chance? ”

Ma Chao was silent.

He said with emotion: "Third child, I really didn't expect your determination to be so big, I'm not as good as you, I don't have as much determination as you, but I really admire you and your courage...... Have you really thought about it? ”

"I've figured it out." Chen Geng nodded lightly.

After hesitating for a moment, Ma Chao said again: "But...... If you want to make an engine, wouldn't it be nice to go to FAW? No matter how bad it is, haven't you worked in the Poussin project team for a while, and it's not bad to go to Poussin, right? ”

With a wry smile, Chen Geng said: "Second child, you should know that although I am learning engines, when I get to FAW and Poussin, those cattle who are thicker than me and have stronger skills than me will grab a lot of them, when will it be my turn?" Although my dad's unit is a little worse, it doesn't have so many ties, and it doesn't matter if it's difficult at the beginning, the important thing is that a blank sheet of paper is good for drawing...... Okay, let's not talk about me, is your receiving unit confirmed? ”

"It's confirmed, it's the General Office of the State Council." Ma Chao nodded again and again, Ma Chao was very happy that he could go to the General Office of the State Council.

"The General Office?" This answer surprised Chen Geng a little: "Aren't they mainly accepting liberal arts students?" ”

"There are not enough people," Ma Chao spread his hands and said with a sè expression: "Although I studied automotive engineering, you have forgotten it, I am a famous talent in our department, and I have published a lot of articles in newspapers and school magazines, so it is not incomprehensible that he wants me." ”

"......" Chen Geng gave a speechless thumbs up: "Okay, you cow." ”

In this era, the republic has a thirst for talents, and even people with science backgrounds can enter the general office.

"Hehe......" Ma Chao looked at Chen Geng with admiration: "The third child, since you want to go down to realize the dreams of our brothers, then the elder brother can't stop you, I just want to say to you, if there is anything you need our help with, just ask, don't be polite, you don't know, in our dormitory, the boss has just been finalized, go to the office of the middle G and Y, the fourth go to the "People's Daily", the fifth goes to the customs, and our dormitory only has the sixth, seventh and eighth places have not yet been determined. But I guess there should be news today. ”

After a pause, grabbing Chen Geng's hand, Ma Chao said seriously: "We brothers, we were brothers when we were in college, and we were still brothers when we worked, when we swore at the beginning, the eight of us brothers swore together, but now it's only you...... Don't say it, brother, I'll say a word, the third child, you are helping all the brothers in our 302 dormitory realize our common dream, if you encounter something unsatisfactory below, what do you need the help of the brothers, you just ask, don't be polite. ”

"Don't worry," Chen Geng's heart was warm, and he nodded with a smile: "Why do you think I dare to go down?" It's because you guys are all on top, and whoever dares to bully me when the time comes, you will help me clean him up. ”

"Hahaha...... Okay, then it's decided, whoever dares to bully you, we will help you clean him up, the third elder, you also promised me, you must represent our 302 dormitory, make a Chinese fighting machine! ”

………………

Li Jianguo and Wang Fusheng stretched their necks and looked at Chen Geng and Ma Chao with a worried face, lest Ma Chao persuade Chen Geng to change his mind, his neck was sore, what he was afraid of was that Chen Geng was changed by his dormitory classmates, and when Chen Geng and Ma Chao patted their shoulders and laughed happily, their hearts were almost jumping out.

Until Chen Geng came to them again, the hearts of the two were still beating wildly.

"Comrade Li, Comrade Wang, I'm sorry to keep you two waiting," Chen Geng apologized to the two of them first, and the next sentence made Li Jianguo and Wang Fusheng happy: "When will we go through the formalities?" ”

"Now! You can do it now! ”

Hearing this, the two of them drank alcohol, and there was more than one ecstasy in their hearts? The whole person was fluttering, as if floating in the clouds.
