What's your name? ”

Li Lao asked with a pleasant face.

"I ...... My name is Fu Lianxing, and I used to be an electrician at the Municipal Agricultural Machinery Factory...... I, I'm a senior electrician......"

Xu was facing a central chief like Li Lao for the first time, and Fu Lianxing was very nervous and a little incoherent.

Li Lao's eyes narrowed slightly, obviously he also had an impression of Fu Lianxing, who was on the list.

"Comrade Xiaofu, don't be nervous, sit down and say something if you have something to say."

"Yes......"

Fu Lianxing sat down, didn't look at the others, and stared at Li Lao with straight eyes.

"Elder Li, what everyone said may be true, the cadres in our city are very concerned about laid-off workers, but as far as it comes to my personal problems, I think it is ...... to deal with them unfairly."

"Oh, why deal with injustice?"

"I'm a senior electrician. I started working in seven or five years. I have been working in a regional agricultural machinery factory. Work diligently. It has been rated as an advanced job for several consecutive years. At the time of the contracted land. Why put me together. Don't let me go to work? ”

Fu Lianxing said excitedly.

Li Lao frowned slightly: "Comrade Xiaofu." Don't rush. Take your time. Explain the cause and effect clearly. Agricultural machinery factories in your area. When will the land be contracted? When did you put together the ground? ”

Maybe it's overly nervous. Fu Lianxing grabbed the teacup in front of him. I drank the tea in one go. Raised his sleeve and wiped the corner of his mouth. Took a deep breath. Only then did he say, "Old Li." We are an agricultural machinery factory. It was declared bankrupt in October '86. Contracted by a private owner......"

"Eighty-six years?"

Li Lao muttered.

"Yes, Li Lao, at that time, our Baozhou City was a 'pilot city for the bankruptcy and reorganization of state-owned enterprises' in N Province."

Dad mentioned it at the right time.

In 1984, with the deepening of reform and opening up, many state-owned enterprises and collective enterprises were unable to adapt themselves to the general economic situation of reform and opening up because of their rigid structures, and they were not doing well, suffered serious losses, and were heavily indebted, making it difficult to sustain themselves. In order to find a solution, the State has begun to carry out pilot work on enterprise bankruptcy in several large cities. These cities followed the model set at the time and gave yellow card warnings to some enterprises that were seriously losing money and were not doing well, so that they could work hard to improve their operations and avoid bankruptcy.

Since there was no experience and no way to rely on it, what the government could do at that time was to shut down and dismantle the "bad enterprises" and "transfer" them to other enterprises with good efficiency. This practice of "killing the rich and helping the poor" runs counter to the objective law of economic operation, and not only does it have no pressure on the "bad enterprises" and still has no motivation to change them, but it also seriously infringes on the autonomy of other enterprises and embezzles the interests of enterprises with good economic returns.

Province N is located inland, the industrial base is weak, and the pilot work of enterprise bankruptcy reform did not begin in earnest until 86 years. Or because of an article by my father.

Although it started relatively late, it was not low, and it was serious as soon as it came up, and it was a heavy drug for insolvent state-owned enterprises and collective enterprises. It is not the same thing as the above "killing the rich and helping the poor".

"The private boss of the contract is called Liu Zhaomin, who is from Liujiashan, Xiangyang County, and used to be the director of a branch factory under Tengfei Industrial Corporation......"

Hearing the names of Liu Jiashan and Tengfei Industrial Corporation, Li Lao glanced at his father, who was silent and calm.

As soon as he came up, he engaged in the optimization of the combination in the factory, and as a result, many unskilled women comrades and old comrades did not combine them, but they combined me, an advanced worker, and a senior electrician. To be honest, I'm not convinced! ”

After talking for a while, Fu Lianxing gradually controlled his nervousness and spoke fluently.

"Oh? Since you have the technology and advanced work, why will you be combined when you optimize the combination? ”

Li Lao asked lightly.

"It's not because I don't know how to make sycophants and bump into Boss Liu, he is retaliating against me."

Fu Lianxing said fiercely.

"No, Comrade Fu Lianxing, we have investigated, you were grouped because you often slack off, many times you slack off for no reason, you go to play cards when you go to work, the factory has repeatedly educated you, you don't correct your mistakes, and that's why you were laid off."

Tang Haitian couldn't help but interject.

"Is that so?"

Li Lao asked.

"I ...... I'm only late once or twice once in a while...... Cards are played only once in a while...... I...... Or is it the old advanced work in the factory......"

Fu Lianxing stuttered a little.

"It's true that you're an advanced worker, but that was 80 years ago. At that time, you just joined the work, and your enthusiasm was still relatively high. But you didn't do well afterwards. After 80 years, have you ever been rated as an advanced job? ”

Tang Haitian refuted it unceremoniously.

"Anyway, I'm still very skilled."

Fu Lianxing went out and dared to contradict the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee.

"No matter how good the technology is, the work attitude is not good! To do revolutionary work, the first is attitude, and the second is ability. ”

Tang Haitian was-for-tat.

Li Lao gently bowed.

"That'...... So why can they all get a loan from the bank, but I can't? The cadres of the sub-district office are prejudiced against me! ”

Seeing that Elder Li seemed to approve of Tang Haitian's judgment, Fu Lianxing pulled out another reason.

"Really? Then why don't you ask yourself, why don't banks lend you money? You don't cherish a good job, you don't cherish a good home, just know how to play cards and gamble, lose a little savings in the family, your wife and children can't live with you, which bank dares to lend to you? ”

Tang Haitian's tone gradually became stern. Dealing with people like Lianxing, in fact, he is very unaccustomed to it, if it weren't for the presence of Li Lao, he was afraid that he would have been reprimanded earlier.

Li Laodi's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"I ...... I didn't have ......"

"None? In May 1987, you were detained for seven days by the Nanjie Police Station in Xiucheng District for gathering a crowd to gamble. In July 1988, he was still sent to a six-month re-education through labor camp by the Municipal Re-education Through Labor Department because of gathering a crowd to gamble. Are they all unjustly? ”

“……”

Fu Lianxing was silent.

"The Reemployment Management Office and the Nanjie Sub-district Office in Xiucheng District have introduced you to three jobs, which one of you has worked for three months?"

Li Laoran was displeased and said, "Comrade Xiaofu, this is your mistake." When you are young, obsessed with gambling, and don't work well, what will you do in the future? ”

"Elder Li, I'...... I...... Actually, if they didn't put me together, I would have worked hard! Now that my job is gone, my wife has left the children and run away with others, and I really can't live this life......"

Pay Lian

And it flowed out.

"I'll help you!"

Suddenly, Liang Qiao, who had been sitting there silently, spoke, his voice was crisp, as beautiful as a yellow bird.

"I am the chairman of the Qiushui Hotel, and I can hire you as the hotel's electrician, and I will be paid two hundred yuan a month."

"Huh?"

Fu Lianxing thought he had misheard.

The others were also dumbfounded, they saw Liang Qiao enter the door behind Li Lao, and thought that it was Li Laodi's entourage or a nephew in his later life, and they didn't want to report that they were the chairman of Qiushui Hotel.

This is outrageous!

No one would have thought that in the famous Qiushui Hotel in Baozhou City, there would be such a young and beautiful chairman.

Li Lao immediately cast an appreciative look at Liang Qiao. Qiao'er nodded and smiled at Li Lao, which was considered a gift, and then said to Fu Lianxing: "Mr. Fu, if you want, you can come to work in the hotel tomorrow." However, I want to make it clear to you first, the management rules of our hotel are very strict, you must work hard, and it is absolutely forbidden to play cards and gamble in the hotel. As long as you work hard, the hotel will treat you equally, and other employees can enjoy the benefits and benefits, and you can also enjoy it! ”

"Liang ...... Chairman Liang, what you said is true? Is it really a salary of 200 yuan a month? ”

"Yes. As long as you perform well, the salary can be increased. ”

Qiao'er said firmly.

"Okay, I'll come to work tomorrow!"

Fu Lianxing hurriedly agreed.

"Mr. Li, Secretary Long, Secretary Liu, leaders, on behalf of Qiushui Hotel, I would like to express my position here, our hotel will fully cooperate with the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government on the re-employment arrangements for laid-off workers of state-owned enterprises, and under the same conditions, we will give priority to the employment of laid-off workers."

Qiao'er talked eloquently, and her beautiful cheeks were full of confidence.

"Good, good!"

Li Lao took the lead in applauding, Chong Qiao'er chin again and again, and the conference room applauded.

Qiao'er smiled, stopped talking, and glanced at her father with the rest of her eyes.

A smile of approval appeared on the corner of Dad's mouth.

Qiao'er bit her lip, lowered her head a little shyly, and breathed a sigh of relief. She has been the chairman of the board for some days, but it is the first time that she has talked so eloquently in front of the central minister and provincial and municipal leaders. Finally, the desired effect was obtained.

……

"Hello Li Lao!"

In the evening, at the Baozhou Hotel where Mr. Li stayed, Baiyang and I met Mr. Li as we wished.

According to the secretary, this is the first time after Li Lao came to Baozhou, except for Long Tiejun, to meet guests alone in private time. In the past, the leaders of Baozhou City wanted to come for a courtesy visit, but they were all blocked.

My heart was moving again.

It is reasonable for Li Lao to meet with Poplar. But is the willingness to meet with me a signal? You must know that although I am only a graduate student, after all, I am the son of Liu Jincai, secretary of the Baozhou Municipal Party Committee. Li Lao's visit to Baozhou City this time, although it was unofficial, in fact, there was a faint meaning to investigate the problem. And my father and the team of the Baozhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government are the targets of investigation.

Li Lao saw that he was in a good mood, and smiled and motioned for us to take a seat.

"Young man, your name is Liu Jun?"

Li Lao looked at me with interest.

Ben Yanai is dressed extremely plainly, with a blue jacket, blue pants, and a pair of white sneakers, how do you look like an ordinary college student, and there is nothing in the Yanai.

"Yes, Elder Li."

"Elder Li, Xiaojun is a master's student of the Chinese Department of South China University, and a disciple of Mr. Jiang."

Poplar introduced me in time.

"Oh? So how old are you this year? ”

"I'm twenty years old."

"Twenty years old for a master's degree? I thought you were twenty-three or four! ”

Li Lao laughed.

"Yang Yang, how did you two little guys get acquainted?"

Seeing that Minister Bai was a little depressed, I was secretly a little amused. This person has always been full of hype in front of me, and he keeps saying "little naughty boy", and now he has become a "little guy" by accident!

"Elder Li, don't forget that I am a cadre of the Youth League where I work as students. When Xiaojun was studying at South China University, he participated in the essay contest "Clearly Opposed to Bourgeois Liberalization" organized by the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee of D Province in '87 and won the first prize in the college group. It's a little theorist. As soon as he turned 18 years old, he joined the party at school and had a very firm political stance. ”

Poplar pulled our relationship like this, which indirectly pointed out that I am also a very determined "fighter", although I am young, but not to be underestimated.

Li Lao's two long eyebrows moved slightly, and he nodded slowly.

"Yang Yang, you've been in Baozhou City for a few days, right? How's the work going? ”

"Well, in the past few days, I have been working with the comrades of the Communist Youth League and Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League at Baozhou Normal University to carry out the ideological education work of 'opposing peaceful evolution', and the response from the students has been very enthusiastic."

Poplar seems to be very casual, but in fact, every sentence is carefully considered before it is spoken.

"Baozhou Normal University, it's a training teacher, right? It is very necessary to strengthen the ideological education of these students, establish a correct world outlook, and strengthen their political stance. Yang Yang, you have done a very meaningful job......"

Poplar smiled and nodded, humbly taught.

"Liu Jun, you are a student cadre, what do you think of this anti-peaceful evolution ideological education work?"

Li Lao turned to me again and asked lightly.

I thought about it, sat up straight, and replied: "Elder Li, capitalist countries have been engaged in peaceful evolution against socialist countries for a long time, and as early as the 50s, US Secretary of State Dulles proposed to 'solve the problem of satellite states behind the Iron Curtain by peaceful means' and 'go all out to implement this noble strategy aimed at peaceful victory.'" In response to this problem, the great leader also made it clear that it is necessary to be vigilant against imperialism's peaceful evolution of socialist countries. In my opinion, this is a matter of principle, and it can even be said to be a fundamental issue, so we must not be negligent and allow imperialism to take advantage of it......"

Li Lao stared at me with a glittering gaze.

"So how can we prevent imperialism from taking advantage of it?"

This time, I didn't think much about it, and immediately replied: "Elder Li, the great leader said many years ago that we should do our own affairs well, make more material things, and make the country rich and strong. I believe that the most fundamental way to prevent peaceful evolution is to do our own work well, select comrades with a firm political stance to serve as leading cadres at all levels, and firmly grasp the general political direction. ”

A slight smile appeared on Li Lao's calm face.
